Times vary based on section of the unit, however at a basic first level you'll be required to complete both 1x Recruit Training Class and 4 days of OSUT.
Schedules may change however, for the moment, they are as follows:
Recruit Training: Monday @ 1900 EST, Friday @ 1800 EST, Saturday @ 1500 EST.
OSUT: Saturday & Sunday class @ 1300 EST, Tuesday & Thursday class @ 1900 EST.
After you complete training you'll need to select a section of the unit (training times vary) and this selection will tie you to a Task Force.
Task ForcesAlpha operates on 1st and 3rd Sundays @ 2000 EST
Task Force Bravo operates on 2nd and 4th Sundays @ 2000 EST
Task Force Charlie operates on 2nd and 4th Saturdays @ 2000 EST
If you complete your initial training but struggle to routinely meet training/operation times, you may want to consider active reserves - which will allow you to fill in for events as and when your schedule allows.
You can use this post (https://www.506thir.net/forums/index.php?topic=11261.0) as a basic reference for timezone differences, any timezone converter, or my calendar page (http://owenhardman.id.au/506/calendar.php) (which includes a timezone switcher, and "reasonably" accurate times for training across the unit) to help you get situated for these events in your local timezone.
