The first day of OCS will start on Sunday around 1000. Upon reporting in you will be overwhelmed with lots of paper work i.e. medical dental and service record data. Next you'll be guided to the sea wall to park your cars if you drove or be driven to the barracks where your training will begin as soon as you step out of the duty van. Make sure you tie your shoes OUTBOARD OVER INBOARD WITH NO BRIDGES AND TUCKED INTO THE OUTBOARD SIDE OF THE SHOE. DO NOT TIE THEM ENLISTED STYLE I.E LEFT OVER RIGHT.
Shortly after entering the barracks you'll be issued your first and only poopy suit. Your indoc week will be the worst week of the entire 12 week program. Indoc is from Sunday to the next Saturday unless you role to H- class before hand.
Sunday: Check in and initial issue of supplies, NOTE: even if you bring everything you'll need for OCS you will still have to buy everything. After everything is issued to you over the 12 week period you will have accured a debt of approx $2,000-$3,000 which you will have to pay down to at least $700.00 before graduation. You do have the option to open a NEX Star card (Credit card) which you can use to pay off your account, also by doing this you'll receive a nice discount for using the credit card.
You can expect to spend $2,000-$3,000 while at OCS so be ready.
Monday: Medical, big day for pilots, NFO's and SWO's
Tuesday: In PFA/ Random stuff and more uniform issue
Wed: Wake up Wed. today you meet your Drill Instructor for the first time. Make sure you are fully hydrated you'll need it.
Thursday: Swim qualification
Friday: Your first room locker and personnel inspection (RLP) and outpost. For outpost your class will be lined up in formation and will carry you’re loaded down sea bags around the outside of the barracks up and down stairs in the barracks and make random pit stops in the sand pits. Once again stay hydrated. This day is when the majority of folks get rolled into H-class. Normally after this evolution is complete, the day is sometimes relaxed and are mostof the time left alone by the DI.
Saturday: Welcome aboard. Today you become part of the regiment and are called a class rather than an indoctrination class. Classes are called by the sequential number and by the year. for example the 15th class of 2010 would read as follows 15-10. The rest of welcome aboard i will not talk about because you need to experience it your self.
