Gold Bar Recruiter
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Gold Bar Recruiter (GBR) is a newly commissioned second lieutenant who has been ordered to active duty on Permissive Temprorary Duty Orders (PTDY) to assist the Professor of Military Science and the Recruiting Operations Officer (ROO) with training and recruiting duties. This position typically beings 140 days before the BOLC II report date. A Gold Bar Recruiter adds a new perspective and energy to an ROTC Battalion because of his or her recent familiarity with high school, college and cadet life. However, if a "Gold-Bar" is in the National Guard, he/she may request extensions of their tour for up to 180 days providing their National Guard Unit is willing to allow such an extension. Active Duty officers may not receive such an extension, as their position at BOLC II and OBC have already been reserved through their active duty units.
