Anyone here in the Guard? Pending the Dr's decision tomorrow, it looks like I'll be signing up for OCS this week, but coming from a Navy background, I really have no idea what to expect. Anyone here been through the wringer?

First week or two is sort of like boot camp/hell week...after that it is a matter of attending classes to learn military ways, duties, strategies and what you have to do to be an officer and...with a little effort...a gentleman. :) Of course, my experience was Navy OCS...I don't know what exactly the National Guard teaches you. 8)

I'm still waiting on my contract. The Dr's have been stringing me along for a few months now. But I'm used to the ride... I spent 8 years in the Navy so I know the drill lol. I was supposed to get my clearance and swear in this morning, but it's been pushed off to Friday.
