So far as I've seen, I'm the only one with a May 6 OCS date as of yet, so I guess I'll start the thread even if it ends up being a lonely one. I'm hoping to get together with a couple people before we start, so if anyone else gets a May 6 date, don't be shy.
Anyway, at this point I'm planning on driving straight through, leaving on Thursday and getting there late Friday. It looks like it's just a little over 2100 miles from where I live here in Montana to Pensacola. I'm used to long hours on the road, but this is a big bite none the less. Anyone have any opinions on that? I know many people wouldn't do it because they're just not used to driving that many hours on end, but I guess my only concern is that I'm not too dragged out from the drive, I'm confident I'd get there.
