Fort Bliss One Station Unit Training (OSUT) Attitudinal Survey

Abstract

In the fall of 1975, TRADOC directed that a test be conducted to determine the viability of a 12/15 week OSUT concept. Six military occupational specialties (MOS's) were identified for testing: MOS's 11D and 11E at Fort Knox, Kentucky; MOS 12B at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri; MOS 13B at Fort Sill, Oklahoma; MOS 16P at Fort Bliss, Texas; and MOS 36C at Fort Gordon, Georgia. In each case a special OSUT program was designed to produce an initial entry soldier capable of performing a minimal set of critical tasks that were provided by TRADOC. The Fort Bliss OSUT program was unique in that the OSUT cycle ran for 15 weeks rather than the 12 or 13 weeks employed at the other posts.
