I'll disagree with that.
18E's and D's will often find themselves working on a B-Team first. I fell in this example as a new 18E. It actually worked to my benefit, as I was mentored by a senior E prior to moving down the hallway to an ODA. This also allowed the ODA's to get to know my personality, strengths and weaknesses. At the end of my first deployment I had a job with an ODA who wanted me on their team. Good place to learn the ropes before standing on the five yard line IMO.
Bottom Line Last, don't be affeared of the ODB, unless you begin to homestead there,,,
