I don't.

Where did you find that link? I went to the OCS website and could find nothing.
Have other pictures been posted?

Thanks!

I am glad I am done and its the best thing I'll never do again. Every time I tell people I have to go back to Quantico for 6 months (TBS) they always say... Damn those two six weeks weren't enough?

"What"s in here?" He grabbed my
toiletry bag. "Drugs? Booze?
Maybe a tube of K-Y jelly and a big
cucumber?"

I miss it too.

yep i thought it was a fitting quote.

Definitely. I was just making sure I had the right book in mind; they're all starting to run together.

Actually in a way I almost wouldn't mind going back...almost. Killer, just wait, TBS is in some ways nothing like OCS and in others the same. Regardless it will be a very unique experience, and nothing you have ever done before. Make the best of it.

Are these the new classrooms? Don't see much room for a rifle and alice pack. I'm sure the staff will find a way, though.

Once you get past the initial splash screen, click "family information".

That picture made my butthole tight. They certainly don't promise you a rose garden, thats for damn sure.

190 has some classic pictures of pick-up.

Yeah, they just started using them towards the end of second increment this summer. They are right by the entrance to "the bridge."

Wow, looks like I was the last class to graduate that used the "old classrooms". I thought those old things had character.

Also looks like those old stencil machines finally gave up the ghost. Sucks for 190. I could pump out name tapes like nothing with my stencil. Using those entire alphabet stencils they seem to have in those pictures would be a pain in the a$$. Getting out of those new classrooms with the quickness might pose a few problems too. Those little writing boards that flip up out of the armrest could really clip a leg as you move past it at a full sprint.

I hated the stencils. Somehow I managed to lock mine up in the personal gear locker during pickup and had to cobble together letters from other guys for 3 weeks.
