OSUT stands for One Station Unit Training, a military term abbreviation.

Army training model that combines basic combat training and advanced individual training at a single location with the same drill sergeants, used for infantry, armor, cavalry scouts, combat engineers and military police.

Example: Infantry OSUT in Georgia now lasts about 22 weeks.

Usage notes

Pronounced "OH-sut." The Army extended infantry OSUT in 2019 to add more marksmanship, combatives and field training. Soldiers stay with one company throughout, building strong unit identity, and graduates of infantry OSUT earn the blue infantry cord.
