[OCSBound2009]

Hey everyone,
Wiggins here. Just recently came home from one of the most fun and exciting events of my life! As some of you may know, I should be entering OCS within the next year in the attempt to earn a commission as a 2nd Lt. in the USMC. Well, This weekend the Captains of OST Atlanta and OST Norcross held a three day Mini-OCS at a training facility here in Georgia. I can not express just how much fun I had, and how much knowledge I gained from the entire experience! If you are interested in going to OCS you should contact your OSO and see if they hold there own Mini-OCS;s and if not perhaps you can key them onto the idea. We ran small unit assaults on locations vs. each other. Learned some close order drill, Marine Corps History, Land Nav. classes and applications, Ran some S.U.L.E. problems, learned how to run the O course and climb the rope (Which kicked my ass!!!). We even ran a PFT and had a nice Warriors Roast on the last day. The Competition, Comradery, and and overall experience were amazing and I can't wait to get to OCS now. On a side note, I was too happy to discover that I may be able to grab this last pilot contract and ship to OCS this June instead of next June! Perhaps then I will have to change my name to OCSBound2008 now........?
