My PCS orders state that the NGIS is the designated lodging for OCS check-ins. The Navy Lodge is typically the preferred accommodation for PCS moves, but not this time.

Just got the word from my Chain of Command and I will be joining you all in the July 7th class. I am currently stationed in Pensacola, FL so if anyone has any questions about here, please let me know.

I would focus on the "big 4" before you ship out. General Orders, Code of Conduct, Navy ranks/insignias, Marine ranks/insignias. Be able to recite them verbatim while being distracted. The Mission of the Navy you will be saying a lot at OCS, but it's not as important to learn before you leave. Your candios should be drilling that into your skull during your first week. Plus, you normally say it together as a class, so it's going to sound like dogshit at first anyways.. Chain of command can be partially learned beforehand, but don't memorize any OCS-related names before you leave. Just learn it when you get there. Songs and warfare definitions didn't come into play until the 8th week inspection for us (last year) so those aren't as important when you first get there.

Friday, 27 September 2019.
Most people stay at NGIS or Navy Lodge.
Ask your recruiter, but I was told to book at Navy Gateway Inn and Suites. It's on base so you don't have to mess with coming in the morning of check-in.
