Hey everybody, been quite a while since I've been on here, so I thought I'd just share a little update with the folks who remember me (and with the ones who don't know me but are just bored enough to click the thread because it says "Marine" in the title).
I've spent the last 6 months in Quantico, VA at The Basic School, and I'm a week away from graduation now. The last graded events were last Friday, so we're in total wind-down mode now—turning in gear, final weapons cleaning, and a lot of waiting around, generally not giving a crap about anything. Thankfully I've made it through the Program of Instruction (POI) without injury and without incident. Up next for me is flight school. I'm looking forward to some great times down in Pensacola for the next couple years.
And I finally found myself with some spare time to write a new post to my blog, so feel free to check that out.
My Life as a Marine Pilot — Ready to Graduate!
If there are any aspiring Marine officers poking around INGO, let me know if you have any questions about the process of applying, selection for OCS, and TBS. I've spent most of the year of 2012 going through that training, and I can probably answer your questions.
And if you've got some good officer jokes, let's go ahead and hear those, too
