Thanks for the info
Yeah thanks for the info. I had no idea about the search option. My navy recruiter referred me here, said it was a good place to find answers. Just want to go ahead and ask how long is OCS, if you dont fail and go back any classes and so on.

Pretty sure there are a million places to find that answer, but for the sake of me being in a good mood...12 weeks. But my guess is it will take you double that if you can't figure out how to find answers as blatant as that on your own!!!!
Here: https://otcn.netc.navy.mil/OCS/index.htm
Because I am sure there is an answer with-in here that will answer your question before you ask it.

Cruise book
For recent OCS grads: Do they make cruise books for OCS? They had them at RTC Great Lakes and I'm curious if they do the same thing at Newport.

thanks for the link i will look into that.

We had a "photo-body" that took pictures all during the course of OCS. We then had a video presentation w/ about 200 pics set to music that would just cycle. Everyone got a DVD of the presentation.
They don't make them, probably due to the relatively low number of people going through OCS compared to Great Lakes. They did however have cruise books way back in the day(like Vietnam era). There used to be stacks of them on the Q'deck in Batt 1 down here in Pensacola. I looked through a couple and it looked like they used to graduate several companies/classes at a time back then, sort of like boot camp.
The hi-mom vids are nice to have though. It's pretty hilarious to watch it several months later when you're sitting around drinking beer with buddies from OCS. The only thing I like having a cruise book for is being able to look up somone's name that you forgot.

Check this link out. It is a series following a class that started about six months ago. The Ensign I have been PTing with was in the class. Pretty good idea of what can be expected.

Lovin' life....
You can buy a VERY cheezy video of OCS graduation. My advice.. DONT BUY IT!! I did and it looked like a third grader filmed it! Just take your own camera.. put in your car, after the first week, go get it and take your own video and pictures.. We all did, and captured the best parts of OCS!
+1 on that... All of my pictures ended up looking like garbage. ~$200 down the tubes. Hopefully they have figured out how to take a first salute picture by now instead of having all three of our faces covered up and blurry.
And the DI's won't destroy me if they see the camera?
Our chief designated a "cameraman" to take pics for the class video. Just make sure to get permission beforehand and you should be good to go.
