HEARTFELT POSTS: Make your post heartfelt and personal! Add your own experience, gif, or photo to the comments, too.
INVITE ALL MEMBERS TO COMMENT: These are BATTALION WIDE posts; don't make your post specific to a company. Ask the "seasoned" members to share their recent experiences with the "newbies".

ABOUT THIS BWP: You need to share the URLs of the RP or MP website to "cite your source" when providing terminology in your post. Copy and paste the terms and definitions as part of the post along with the URL.


Make this post FUN; create a great meme to encourage the members to take a look and join the conversation. Use one of the following two websites to create your "Terminology Tuesday" posts. Click the link to open the page in a new window.

RTU & VCM IMAGES: Creating a VCM for tons of terminology is a time-consuming task. Consider creating a couple of generic but fun "Terminology Tuesday" VCMs in the MP Meme Generator rather than images for sets of terms or each term. Remember, our members want to spend time talking with the folks who have been through boot camp and know the ropes. We encourage you to spend time talking with the members rather than making dozens of memes!

You may choose to create your own VCM with the Meme Generator.

  REMINDER:
Upload your VCMs to your VO Photo Album in your MP Team Group before using it in your post. Click the folder to open the MP Meme Generator.

MEMBER INTERACTION: Add your VO signature; tag yourself so the members "see" who you are. Be sure to go back in after you make the post so you can talk with the members. They want to hear from YOU.

Important Note to ALL Volunteers: New ideas for a BWP are welcome but require approval FIRST. Seek advise from your coach on new ideas. Your coach will consult with the RTBN Manager. Creating or "piloting" a new post idea is never permitted without explicit permission from the RTBN Manager.
