We will no longer provide “White Slips” during the monthly Obstacle Course Opportunity Training. Our obstacle course event was never meant to be mandatory. Soldiers can run through the O-course with their unit or piggyback with another unit. TDAAS will still conduct monthly O-course training but there will be no documentation provided.
