Likely the one he is talking about.

The course has one instructor from 19th that is a squared away 18F that I had the pleasure of working with on my last rotation.

There are others. For those in Hawaii, look up the Malaysian Tracker Course. I took the abbreviated portion when some of the Malay Soldiers came to the island. It was informal and but very informative.

The Thai Army ran one during Cobra Gold at one point and when I was assigned to an Infantry Battalion, they ran some guys through. Different OE's require some different skills.

If your unit bitches about money to send you, look to your S2 shop for funds (they should know what to use) and OEF/OIF funds can cover them. Just make sure you have a strong justification and real need.
