Revision as of 13:56, 8 December 2012
 | This article needs to be updated with material from Field Manual: Updates, Field Report: AFFS. Once these titles clear the Moratorium period, or if they already have, please consider revisiting this article and updating it with the new material. |
Property "Update Needed From" (as page type) with input value "Field Manual: Updates]], [[Field Report: AFFS" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process. Template:InfoBoxStateUnit
The Goshen War College Training Battalion is unique among the training battalions of the AFFS as graduates of the academy are not required to join. Instead a graduate requests permission to join the unit for additional training before moving on to an AFFS unit.[1]
Another interesting aspect of the Goshen Training Battalion is the fact that its composition changes with every graduating class. In 3062 the unit had enough equipment to field two battalions of BattleMechs and two wings of fighters. At the same time, the Battalion had twenty-three MechWarriors and five AeroSpace Pilots.[1]
