Command Sergeants Major should try this. Go to an RTI when you know they are starting a course. Go early because they'll start around 0500 so that they can get registration, the APFT and course orientation over with before POI classes begin. Sit near the table where someone is checking prerequisites. Try not to look too shocked when you begin to hear the same complaints from your soldiers regarding how one of your NCOs prepared them to attend.
Schools are in existence to train soldiers.
We have let down every soldier that we turn away. In essence, every soldier that we turn away or that fails to report costs us money and weakens our argument for more training dollars. Take away the need to train and you can close the school. If we have one central location for all training within that MOS or skill, you can expect it to be more costly to run your people through that school. It's a viscous cycle and one that we all better start controlling now.
