Can you guys refresh me on the ins and outs of knocking out a block of R days with recurrent training? Specifically, how many days do I need to leave on each side of the training in order to be assured of the entire block dropping? Thanks

You need 2 r days before your training starts or 2 days after your last day of training. I learned that the hard way:( Good luck! Although the senior VTO guys will not be happy with you because you will beat them to the cherry trips, oh well:)

Aim for the center. Anything close the edge (2 days) will result in something BAD coming your way from CRS.

And then enjoy your temporary super-seniority!
