I just realized something. I'm going to Benning for OSUT. Does this mean I'm going thru boot camp again?

"No Drill Sergeant, my DI's at Parris Island were alot scarier than you."

Please note DEP's and others, I do not take responsibility for what happens if you say this to a drill sergeant.

Feb 8th, so by jumping on OSUT, explain this a little bit better for me. I was kinda wondering this last night after I logged off.

there is a huge PS bonus right now. we put in some 11X and one OPT 40 that all got 15000 BUCKS.

NO, THE OPT 40 WAS NOT A PS GUY.

I should have went where you are. This was last friday and I didn't get a damn thing. Is it because they offered me choice of duty station?

We had a prior service dude who joined my platoon at he beginning of the AIT phase of OSUT. You would've thought he was a movie star, the way the youngsters were sucking up to him. The DS's gave him a bunk on the opposite side of the bay, so he wouldn't have to be around all the 'groupies.'

I would imagine that it will be more of a brush-up course for you. There probably won't be a lot of smokings.

Who knows, though....might as well prepare yourself for the worst-case scenerio: You'll be beginning OSUT from Day 1 and your DS's ex-wife was a Marine. He HATES the Corps.

Ranger Abell I leave feb 8th. Which is somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 days. I tried to leave as soon as I could.

Ranger EarthPig I volunteer nothing unless asked or they show me proof. I don't want groupies, while it would be cool if those groupies were female, they are not. So I know nothing about anyone or anything. PI is a distant memory.
