It's time for the next video in the series, The Making of a Drill Sergeant, where we follow U.S. Army Reserve noncommissioned officer through the process of going to The U.S. Army Drill Sergeant Academy at Fort Jackson, South Carolina.
In Episode 2, Part 9, our drill sergeant candidate, Sgt. Alycia Perkins from Columbia, South Carolina, completes her last week of the Academy. She explains that Week 7 & 8 were full of activity. Graduation is around the corner, so this is our last video blog from our candidate.
The second full story on this 2nd Brigade, 98th Training Division Soldier can now be found on DVIDS (https://www.dvidshub.net/news/346209/making-drill-sergeant-episode-2-going-drill-sergeant-academy), but the video clip series will have some interesting little tidbits that would not all fit in the articles. So make sure you watch to learn more about this Soldier and her journey on becoming a U.S. Army Reserve drill sergeant. And stay tuned for the next article in the Winter Griffon (and DVIDS) that will describe her experiences out on the trail with trainees.
If you want to become an Army Reserve drill sergeant yourself, make sure you check out https://www.the98thdrillsergeant.com/ for the qualifications and details on submitting an application.
And for our current 98th Training Division drill sergeants, keep up the great work. We could not be more proud of you. And if you have stories to tell from the trail, make sure you contact the division public affairs officer, Maj. Michelle Lunato. You can send direct messages via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. You can also send an email via 98thtrainingdivisionpao@gmail.com.
