900 division

I was wondering about 900 divisions also. I have 8 years of trumpet experience(concert and marching band) under my belt and really want to be in a 900 division. Will they ask everybody during p-days if they have experience? I mean I don't think I would just tell and RDC out of the blue if I have experience, I would probably have to be asked to mention it.

On arrival night, RDC's who are processing you in will be asking you all if anyone has experience singing, playing an instrument, doing color guard, etc. If you do and you want to be in a 900, that is when you would mention it. If you do and don't want to, keep your lips shut. Those questions are for triple threat 900 divisions. State Flags and Staff divisions are selected differently and you aren't given a choice if they decide they want you in a 900 staff or state flags division.
