Yeah I’ll take that over RTC. I’m grateful for the lessons learned there but you couldn’t pay me enough to go through all that again. A whole room with a bunch of people who don’t know when to shut up when the lights go out is not an experience I’ll miss. Although, the stories I have from my time there will stick with me forever so it wasn’t all bad.
Also, getting treated badly by an RDC is one thing because that’s part of training. But getting talked down to by the galley workers because we were recruits was so ridiculous. We’d go from getting smoked and respecting our RDC’s to wanting to throw hands with the galley workers 😂😂

you can have coffee if you're on watch during JOC phase
Alright, I was talking to some USNA Firsties today and a bunch were going SNA and SNFO and they were saying that word on the yard is there’s gonna be a super high selection rate this year for aviation. So maybe that bodes well for us because they select in late May. Could just be more rumors from the rumor mill though.

Making Recruiting Great Again
I wouldn’t try to link USNA or NROTC service selection with OCS boards. At least for USNA, it’s typically high (~85%) midshipmen get their first preference.
You’re gonna stress yourself into hole. Everything’s already been decided, read some books and do some pushups big dawg.

Forreal. Put the energy not into speculating but into preparing 👍

I won’t deny that sounds better than RTC, but having a slob for a hatch mate makes things a lot harder, especially when inspection time rolls around. I was blessed to have clean hatch mates, but I’ve definitely seen some gross rooms there

At no point during JOC or SOC phase were we told that we could do that. If they recently changed the OCR to say that, then sure, but coffee/deserts were limited to CandiO phase when I was there

it was during covid but plenty was screwed up then.
Did you go to OCS already?
Bench press, inclined bench, shoulder press, bar dips, different grip pull ups. Also doing different stances push-ups helped for me such as diamond push ups, regular, archer, etc..

Set a goal. Do 50 push-ups x4 each day until you can rep out what your max is.
