Hell Yeah! Im done. I graduated yesterday!! I got myself my grad present on thursday and some more cash to throw into it now. No more school, just time to focus on getting ready for OCS. Congrats to everyone else who is done. Damn it feels good.

No, I actually just sold my bike. (I miss it like crazy) I got a Titan. I am going to get a new Gixxer as a OCS grad present and I am like to go camping and dirtbike riding and stuff. The gas sucks, but its better than most trucks, but I cant do much with a little commuter car. I love it, its sick.

Have fun paying for gas! I swear I'm going to ride a bicycle everywhere from now on.
Hmm, maybe this is the week for final select? I want my date!

I had an eclipse, and got 35 mpg, but I still rode my bike every day. I wont be driving the truck all the time, when I get a new bike I will be riding it. Its just more convenient to have a truck, at least for me, with moving, and stuff. But yeah, gas is no fun, either way.

I still have to do medical. I am scheduled to do it thursday, but they have to do a med doc review, and they dont even have my records yet. I may have to push it back.

Ok, so my recruiter emailed me a bunch of gouge, and while initially skimming over it I came across "memorize the Big Four" quite a bit. The only problem is what the Big Four are is somewhat vague. From a google search and search from this website (although it kept telling me the big four was too general... even in quotations) I gathered that the Chain of Command was one. Now I am assuming that the Big Four are as follows:

1) Chain of Command
2) Code of Conduct
3) General orders of a sentry
4) The Fourteen Leadership Traits

Again, I used various search functions to attempt to confirm my assumption but the words are a bit too general for those. If the reason for this is that the Big Four are confidential or something then please delete this post. If not, could someone tell me if these four are correct? Thanks in advance.

*Should have probably posted this in the Stupid Questions about OCS thread. Sorry. Move if you feel it is necessary, I won't mind*

Just completed MEPS. After being the first person there (0450) and waiting for the NRD Staff to show up because of a paperwork mix up, I finally got started about 0900. After blood, urine, vision, hearing, and the physical I passed. 20/20 vision, basically perfect hearing, and 20% Body Fat (212 lbs. - Started at over 250 in Jan)!!! I am hoping to final select in the next couple of weeks so I can get a date for OCS. I hear classes are booked until September. Just glad to be done and to be able to truly see results from the hard work for the last 5 months.
