With the ranks and insignia do you have to know how to describe how everything looks verbatim?

Pretty much, yeah. When you get there, class team should give you guidance on what will be the official source for the wording, whether the OCR or the gouge book or something else. Either the class president or the RLP body should ask class team to clarify, so make sure the person you pick to be RLP body is totally anal, so that he/she asks every conceivable question to cover all the bases.

I had a full beard for years. Since getting the Pro-Rec, I've been shaving every day to try to get my face used to it. I'm still in the "slasher flick" stage, but hopefully I'll get over that before heading to OCS...

Leg shaving contest vs beard shaving contest, who's fastest? Hopefully they don't check if there are any missed spots

Great, thanks, I keep finding varying information so I wasn't sure.

Again, I went to DCOIC, but I will say that if you are showering at night there is plenty of time to shave your legs. Also, all women will be in the same position and no one is going to care if it has been a day or two since you touched up your shave job.

Thanks I was just messing around, I'm the queen (self appointed) of getting ready fast so either way I know I'll be fine. I'm sure I'll take your advice and do everything at night.

To anyone who just graduated or is in the know, I heard gouge that we now wear our seabags on our back on outpost instead of carrying in the front. Anyone know?

 

[Mr Spenz]

Yes you do.

 

[Globalfromal]

Yes you do.

Yes we wear them on our backs or bear hug them?

 

[Givemeinfo]

My OR told me it's changed to on our backs.

Thanks, I heard the same thing from a new O-1E at my command, but just wanted to verify.

While I'm on the subject of gouge, what about eating by the numbers? I've heard that is also gone.

Yup too many people choked

Wow.

 

[Tycho_Brohe]

Yeah, from what I heard, three people resulting in two NAMs (the candidates who gave the Heimlich). One of those NAMs became our class REGCOM.

Wow again. I have seen NAMs given out for less though.
