Bushmaster 2024 Faculty Call

Posted on Updated on

Greetings all,

Operation Bushmaster 2024 is quickly approaching and we are searching for highly motivated, operationally focused faculty who can guide the operational and clinical scenarios for a platoon of students in a simulated austere environment.  As in years past, we are looking to recruit exceptional military medical officers to mentor our students, as well as provide objective feedback on their performance in medical and leadership positions.  We are also recruiting senior NCOs from all services to serve as platoon sergeants and demonstrate the ideal officer/enlisted working relationship.

Iteration 1: 5-9 OCT 2024  (travel on 4 Oct and return on late 9 Oct/10 Oct)
Iteration 2: 14-18 OCT 2024  (travel on 13 Oct and return on late 18 Oct/19Oct)    

***Travel will be funded by USU but you must have approval to participate from your home unit**

 If you are interested in serving as a faculty member, please click here 2024 Bushmaster Faculty Application

Timeline for applications:
-Applications must be submitted by 15 June 2024
-Notifications of acceptance will be sent around 5 July 2024
-Feel free to share this link with anyone who you feel would serve well as a Bushmaster faculty member – particularly motivated senior NCOs who could serve as a platoon sergeant.  If you would like to strongly endorse someone, send me an email so that I can look out for their name. We are using a USMC focused scenario in 2024. 

If you know a Marine line officer (O-4/O-5) who would be interested in serving as the Battalion Commander role player, please let us know.

If you are selected to serve on the faculty, there will be required pre-work (about 8 hours prior to arriving for faculty training day) to ensure that you are prepared for the updated scenario and assessment requirements.  

If you have any questions, please send an email to: bushmasterfacultycall2024-ggg@usuhs.edu 

Thank you all for volunteering your time in order to help our students grow.  Operation Bushmaster is a pivotal experience for them all and their experience depends heavily on the faculty.  You all are contributing to the readiness and success of our students.  I look forward to hearing from many of you and working with you soon. Wishing you all well!!

    All,

    I have tried reaching you at bushmasterfacultycall2024-ggg@usuhs.edu and it is stating that it is an invalid email. How else can questions be answered?

      Great question, but I don’t know. Apparently the e-mail and link are not working, and I don’t have an update.
