Skid and Kbay are pretty right on this, I can now speak from experience from both. I completed OCS with the USMC but had family complications and left. I'm not going through the whole WOCS thing because while I enjoy saying that I went through OCS I really didn't enjoy alot of stuff about the Corps. In the Corps you really need to be a team player and go where the momentum is going. I think Kbay hit it on the nail when he says you have to want to lead Marines; leading Marines provides a very intanigble form of gain. Any other branch your going to get promoted faster, be able to be more of an (gasp) individual, and have a better quality of life (well as far as stuff you can measure). However I'm still most proud of doing all the crap I had to at OCS, but I also knew that the Corps and I differed greatly on what I wanted to do with my life.
