31 August 2002 OCS Date

[BB]

Is anyone else headed to OCS on August 31st, or am I by myself for this one?

What's up BB? I will be there with ya. Oh boy...I can hardly wait to get a butt whoopin, how about you? We will have to laugh it off together (but not in front of the DI's of course). Send me an email if you get the chance. I think I am going to head down a day early. Maybe we can catch up for our last burger and beer on the 30th. Do you by chance know our class number?

See you soon.

Getting together for a beer and little PT before reporting on the 31st sounds good.

Hey, has anyone received their orders yet? I was instructed that they should show up about a month out from going. Also, I haven't been given the class number, but if anyone else has it, could you post it for the rest of us that have been left in the dark?

Good luck on training. Keep it up the clock is ticking!

Im sure it will be a memorable experience.

Pap - what are the class sizes like? Attrition? etc

 

[SmithS]

Pap,
When you say rolled, do you mean people that got hurt or had physical problems? Also, how many of those 50-55 candidates have quit? What would you say is the biggest reason a candidate gets rolled? Thanks for your info.

 

[RC]

Pap -
Awesome info - is most of the rolling due to academics, physical, or med reasons? Are the people that are rolling losing designators?

Pap-

Besides all the other questions (about getting rolled), could you tell us the make-up of your class, meaning the percentage of your current class that is male/female, prior/non-priorenlisted, etc.?
Also, what is the most common type of injury?
