I was a full RBC skeptic until we had our first in FL. Yes, it's a lot of time, but it's well worth it. The full RBC is king at creating better instructors and bonding those instructors into a team. Where I once considered the RBC concept to be obsolete - I am now converted. IMHO, every state should run one RBC per year if at all possible.
That said, it is what it is - improvise, adapt, and overcome. We had the choice of cutting this year's RBC from the schedule or adapt - we chose to adapt.
My plan is to run day one on an "enhanced" Sat POI. I will focus on teaching the students how to perform Safety Rules, Line commands, Six Steps, IMC, and only a proper prone demo, to save time. While this will leave gaping holes in their education, it will allow them to be of some use on a firing line after the event.
After dinner we will work on telling the story (They can sleep when they git home). Day two and three will be advanced marksmanship and how to do a standard event KD presentation, with more history each evening.
We'll spend the AM of day two covering the academics of KD and the following 1.5 days shooting at full distance. I already have a well proven POI for that portion. The day one POI will be outlined using past experience as a guide to time constraints and we'll see how it goes.
By pulling 12 hour days, I hope to get most of the RBC POI completed within the reduced time allotted. We have a regular event still following, so the students will be expected to serve as instructors, using what they have learnt at the modified RBC.
This would not work at all well for truly green attendees, but the ones we have signed up so far are all "veteran" attendees, or "repeat offenders" as we call them down here.
Needless to say, it's something of an experiment that was begat by necessity. I'll post a full IAAR upon completion.
