Section 141-31-5-1 - PURPOSE
a. The conduct of proper career counseling of officers is a responsibility of command at all levels and when properly executed will strengthen the officer corps of the West Virginia Army National Guard. Career counseling is an accurate and complete presentation of information on the opportunities, challenges, and benefits of a career as an officer in the West Virginia Army National Guard.
b. The most vital counseling is administered to the newly commissioned officer early in his career. It is during this period that the young officer forms the impressions that he will carry throughout his service career as he is exposed to new experiences and opportunities. In order to better prepare the young officer to meet the challenges and obstacles, each commander must take all necessary actions to reassure and to assist the junior officer and to contribute to his maturing process.
