    I'm just memorizing the COC without names, I'll add those once I get to Newport since it's impossible to know them yet, with exception of President Obama, VP Biden and a few of the more permanent ones, etc.

    I just finished a 10 day supply of antibiotics...nothing. I take Zyrtec for sinuses...nothing. I drink OJ, take multivitamins....nothing. My left ear (eustachian tube?) feels clogged because everytime after I sneeze/blow my nose it makes some strange noise in my inner ear. I have a waiver...

    chest cold @ OCS

    I've got a cough/chest cold/sinus congestion etc. Will that be a problem at OCS? Will I get bumped to H company or medically NPQ? I can't seem to shake it.

    Thanks, I'll call the IRS but I know Monday is a national holiday and I'm worried that because of the inauguration they might be closed Tuesday as well. Hmmmm.....

    Two questions. I'd really appreciate some on these. The more detailed your answers the better. I have a little less than 2 weeks to get all this stuff squared away! 1. TAXES How have officer candidates managed to pay their taxes in the past? I'll be at OCS Feb - April and won't even be around...

    Yes, I saw my childhood specialist, who sent paperwork to my OR who forwarded to a medical review boards (maybe it was MEPS I'm not sure though). I couldn't proceed with my application until that was approved. Once it was approved (the whole process took 2 months) then I moved ahead. It all...

    Updated list of things to bring?

    Is there a point when Under Armour is allowed to be worn at OCS? I couldn't find this question answered anywhere in previous threads. An ensign working at my recruiter's office seemed to think that during Candio phase we might be able to. Just want to know if I should pack that stuff.

    Good luck euclid, one thing I've learned from this is if you're persistent you can get it done. It took a long time and a lot of work, but it is possible. Best of luck.

    Paper punching for the time being but eventually I'd like to be good enough to hit more than a stationary paper target at 10 yards. I'll buy a better one(s) later. For now, just a good beginner gun to learn how to shoot.

    That's a good point. I'm planning on buying this after OCS so I should at least have $400, though from the posts I've read it doesn't sound like I'll have much more. I guess the mission would be a bit of a mixed one. It will be for target shooting for sure but also home defense. I don't plan...
