Sure. That and you'll get issued everything you need again (socks, underwear, white tshirts). Wear what you brought and keep the ones you buy for inspections.

For some reason, I get the feeling that there is a bit of sarcasm placed on the word 'fun' in that sentence!

Do officer candidates go through the tear gas chamber at OCS in Newport, RI?
I went through in March 08' and didn't have to do it.
My roommate's indigestion was pretty much similar to a tear gas chamber so I guess I can say maybe?!
Hey everyone. I just graduated from OCS and I am on my way to Pensacola at the end of the week. Even though the program is still transitioning and figuring out what works and what doesn't, I may have a good view of what you will see if you are classing up in the near future.
So here's a dumb question that came to mind today. Are candidates allowed to wear compression shorts or spandex or something similar while running? I ask because without Under Armour I tend to chafe pretty badly, and would love to avoid that during OCS.
Some people have leg pain and end up going to medical to get a chit that allows them to use compression shorts.
Perfect. Leg pain/medical chit here I come. Thanks for the reply.
FWIW, the shorts you'll run in have a liner that might abate chafing. Also, you can rock white boxer briefs should you so desire. I'm a bigger guy and wear compression shorts for chafing, but OCS running wasn't an issue for me with briefs and the PT shorts w/ liner. Also, it's not like you run that much. 2.6mi are the longest runs.
Sounds good--the liner might help some, but boxer briefs don't help me out at all. I went for a short run yesterday (~2 miles) and my compression shorts were in the wash, so I used boxer briefs. I ended up chafing pretty badly even in that short amount of time. Yeah... I'm regretting that decision today for sure.

I have been trying to find some definitive gouge on something but haven't been able to find any. My question is there a standard form/format/process for doing an interview for your application process? I understand that prior service applicants are required to submit a certain amount of interviews with Navy officers, and that non-prior applicants can do so if they wish to strengthen their overall package. I am a non-prior applicant and if it is allowed I would like to submit an interview with an O-5 that my father works with.
If any prior service guys on this thread could point me in the right direction for this, it would be much appreciated. Thanks!
