Drafted into Army August 68. Graduated from OCS in August. 69. Released from active duty as a Captain March 72. Never regretted it!

I went through ROTC and got to my duty station and to surprise my unit needed officers, so I got a platoon to command kind of early on. I got out a Captian and I can officialy say, I do NOT regret joining the Army

As an Alaskan, I appreciate your video on PT up here. Would you recommend going the mustang route or directly commissioning if I want to be infantry? (I've heard mustangs make better officers because they've been on both sides of the fence.)

@AXDX_ 2 года назад

Love your videos. Question about OCS, are you allowed to bring vitamins & OTC medications? Did the cadre make you layout all of your belongings to check? Asking because I take daily vitamins and Zyrtec for allergies

@AlvintheDirector 2 года назад

No over the counter medicine when I was there!

Thanks for posting sir. Quick question, do all soldiers who branch signal get the Top Secret security clearance? Or is that dependent on the unit I go to? What about for national guard/reserve?

I was Marine Corps infantry for ten years. I recently joined the Army as enlisted Supply. I was just recently accepted to the green to gold program and begin this August. Does anyone have any recommendations for what field they enjoy working as an officer? I was considering infantry again but it's not terribly desirable considering I have a wife and newborn baby now. I'm trying to plan for something that will cross over to the civilian sector and was considering aviation or quartermaster.

@AlvintheDirector 2 года назад

Aviation and quartermaster are great options

@tritontransport 2 года назад

Any body with aviation, logistics or supply chain knowledge and experience is good especially right now as this is my career field. Aviation has a shortage of personnel in every aspect of it

@LA_Commander Год назад

Transportation is also good. And fun!

Every body who gets orders to Alaska at first wonders why do we have such a big military presence in Alaska ? Once you are there you realize the logistical and strategic reasons. Especially with what’s going on right now with Russia and Ukraine. Russia is like right next door, only a few miles away in some locations. Not to mention all the other places it is close to in the world theater because of the curvature of the earth 🌎 👍

Hello Sir, Thank for your different videos, I want to know what happens for a married Active Duty soldier, after OCS? when does He see his family? After OCS or he’s supposed to be done with everything? Does He still live in the barracks after OCS?

@AlvintheDirector 2 года назад

After OCS, make sure your dependents are on your orders. They MAY be able to PCS with you to BOLC, but will be on your orders for your follow on duty assignment. Officers don’t live in barracks.
