Able to get a concealed carry in DC?? You must be a unicorn
My reading of 5530.7C is that you'd need prior approval for this by NAVSTA Newport CO, not the OTCN CO or any other tenant command. That may be hard to do. The path of least resistance, I think, is to find someone to store your guns until you leave OCS, or rent a small storage unit to keep them in -those are often pretty inexpensive. The staff in Newport, generally, are pretty reasonable, though. If you explain your situation to them, they may be able to accommodate you.
Concealed carry is now shall issue in DC.
Gilbert indoor shooting range in Rockville has firearms storage options. No ammo allowed though.
I suspect a firearms dealer in the area might store it for you for a few dollars each month. Other options include a safe deposit box or even a mini-storage warehouse.
Storing Your Firearms: Safe Options for Gun Storage
There are more guns in the United States than there are people, so storage is an important issue. When a gun owner goes off to college or on a trip where firearms are not allowed, he’ll need to keep his gun or rifle safe somewhere. This article revisits your options and answers several pressing...

Guns in a bank safety deposit box
Ok so I will be leaving in a few months and not coming back for several years. Taking my firearms with me is a no no and not something I'd want to do anyway. Here is another issue, I don't trust my friends to hold onto my deadly weapons, being in college/living with room mates it just would not...

Ditto this. I'd ask around at the local ranges. They should be able to securely hold your handgun while you're away. That avenue is way more secure than a storage unit.

I'm not completely versed in MD handgun laws but I believe you'd need an Handgun license so you being a DC resident they might give you flak about that. I'd also be wary of storing in MD given there was hefty gun store robbery in Rockville less than a month ago. I'd suggest Northern VA for storage.
My understanding as a DC resident is that the MD HQL is for the purchase/rent of handguns as an MD resident.
If DC resident, you can bring firearms into MD provided you comply with FOPA. I'm sure there are other regs to be aware of.
The final culminating event that puts together everything you learn during your time at OCS. It is the required evolution to make it to Candidate Officer phase. (Which is the final 3 weeks)
Battle Stations is truly the least of your concern at this point in your journey. Just commit your all and don't quit no matter how much OCS sucks and you'll be fine.
Edit: have grit and heart.
You're welcome.

Currently awaiting my FINSEL and class date for SWO. I'm active duty stationed in Hawaii. As my family is already out here (and I hear SWO reports directly to their first ship), I'd like to get stationed back out here. I know orders always change but did any recent SWO OCS graduates see Hawaii as an option when choosing orders? San Diego would be my second choice.
As far as my class, there were a handful of available Hawaii billets. The number increased during the time I was at OCS too, I don't know for how long that uptick will be in place.
The SWOs generally decide amongst themselves in the classes to give first picks to folks with families and priors. That's up to your classes specifically, so don't expect it, but it's a consideration that often happens. I've only seen 1 prior in the 9 months I was there not get what they wanted. He got Norfolk when he wanted San Diego.
