The Academy of Military Science AMS is a 6 week Officer armed forces officer commissioning program of the UnitedStates Air Force . AMS is held at Maxwell Air Force Base in Montgomery, Alabama , with the purpose of training and commissioning Air National Guard officers only. ref cite news url http www.accessmylibrary.com coms2 summary 0286 30830027 ITM title Air National Guard date 2007 03 01 accessdate 2008 06 13 work The Officer ref AMS was originally located at McGhee Tyson Air National Guard Base , outside Knoxville, Tennessee . It was moved to Maxwell in 2009. The move was initiated by a question in 2006 from the Air Force chief of staff about the potential of a shared common experience at a single location among active duty, Guard and Reserve officer candidates. Although the curriculum of AMS is very similar to Air Force Officer Training School OTS , AMS differs from OTS in that it is only six weeks in duration. The primary reason for AMS being a six week course instead of the traditional OTS 12 week course is that, on average, 85 percent of Air National Guard members have had prior military service when they arrive at the AMS course, versus about 40 percent of OTS students have had the prior experience. ref cite news url http www.af.mil news story.asp?id 123152505 title Academy of Military Science moving to Maxwell date 2009 06 04 accessdate 2011 01 12 ref Another difference is that the AMS program doesn t operate on an upper class lower class structure as does OTS.
