Buy a sharp pair of small sewing scissors “Hobby Lobby, Wal-Mart,” for cutting off IPs “little strings on your uniforms.”

Government-issued nail clippers worked perfectly fine for this task back in the day.

If you have any questions about OCS or the beginning of a SWO’s career path shoot me some +1 rep power and I will do my best to answer your questions.
Just "shot" you some -1 rep power. This site is about posting to help others, not posting to increase your rep.

You're an officer now - take responsibility for your own actions. The computer didn't fuck up your post, you did.

Just remember to use the heat to melt the IP... not the actual flame. That's a sure fire way (no pun intended) to burn a hole in your uniforms.

Of course! Flick on the flame, move it close to the IP, watch the IP disappear.

I will be going to OCS 9 MAY 2010. I had lunch with an recent OCS grad. I asked him to tell me about OCS. He asked me if I wanted the short version, or the long version.

I told him short first, and he responded, "IT SUCKS."
I asked for the long version, and he responded, "IT SUCKS."

Pretty good advice, huh??

lol.. you'd be surprised how many people I've seen put the flame to it and then be amazed there is a hole in their sleeve. Especially on the hash marks on dress blues.

Okay, the OP was bad, real bad; however, he may just possibly have taken enough @#$% already. He just got out, is excited to share his knowledge and -I dare say-the whole rep thing was a little joke meant in good fun. Get off the bandwagon.

So this guy is so bad? Do you remember joboy? How about Brett, everybody thinks he's a satanist. I myself was so obnoxious, that the 0-4's used to beat me up everyday for breakfast. This guy is a total loser? Well let me tell the story of another loser...

Rep for the first person to post this reference.

I wasn't trying to give him a hard time... I appreciate his post and any advice he is willing to give. 4 Words were literally all of the advice I got from my lunch with a recent-OCS grad.

I don't see anything wrong with piling on a little bit. We all do it, all throughout our careers, and God knows he gets it enough as a SWO. Besides, the "I gave you -1 because your post sucks..." was pretty good. If it hurts his feelings, maybe he should take off the skirt, grow a mustache, and harden the f*ck up.

I don't disagree with piling on, but I think he's learned his lesson; he is, after all, only an Ensign. Everybody deserves some slack after taking enough !#@$%.

Yeah - piling on and then tickling, right?!
