I was just trying to memorize the big four and noticed that the OCS website provides the chain of command without the current names of anyone. I was just trying to fill it out and looking for some help. Maybe somebody can help check my work and add anything that I don't have. I imagine you won't know the first four names until you get there, but all the rest look like they could be learned in advance. I'll be heading there in 11 days.
