Well I just finished up with my first weekend of Pre-OCS. There will be four weekends altogether before the first phase of OCS begins.
Pre-OCS is just what is sounds like. It is very similar to how RSP was prior to Basic Training. At least it was this weekend. We spent most of our time in the classroom learning important skills we will need at OCS. The primary focus was land navigation. It is pretty obvious this will be a heavy topic at OCS.
Saturday we did get some time outside for drill and ceremony, but not a lot. Sunday we had a partial PT test, but they wouldn't let us complete it due to bad weather. I am sure we won't get the luxury of staying dry in OCS though.
There aren't very many details to share from the weekend or advice to give. Just pay attention to the details and be confident.
