Aloha all,
I have a few questions about OCS. I understand that you won't get through OCS unless your team helps. I am a prior army medic. (Save the jokes..) I want to be the best. I supplicate that at minimum I will get a department/platoon. I want them to be the best. Winning undeniably has its benefits. How do I accomplish this? I have found that in my many years with the army "blending in" held me back (unless is was camouflage and concealment), I would like to set the standard.
I would venture to say that a few universal principles apply:
Be early
Have you uniform on correctly
Yell louder than everyone
Get everywhere faster than everyone else
Clean it till you wouldn't mind eating off it
Live the Navy(army) values
Treat every march as if you were on display for your grandma and the president
Hit the target with a kill shot so you don't have to waste supplies saving them.... (some things are hard to shake)
Know every line of Officer Candidate Regulations (quick reference guide) verbatim
Hopefully I'm on the right track here. Any more insight would be appreciated.
