I am more then willing to accept it. I have full faith in my ability to be screamed at, and push ups have never hurt anyone. I think I am looking for is advice on how I should approach OSUT.
Should I
A) Go through the motions, and get to the next evolution?
B) Attempt to be a leader? (I was a squad leader in the Corps, and in combat, and though the USMC is not the Army, I believe I know a thing or two about being a PVT and being a warrior)
C) Expect to be treated differently because I was prior service and infantry?
I deployed to Haditha in 07, Fallujah 08-09. First deployment was real, second was an Iraqi babysitting/ pass out candy operation. I by no mean think that I am an expert in the field of infantry. And will look at my time in OSUT exactly how it should be, Training to be in the army, I am just attempting to grasp how I should prepare for it.
I also acknowledge that this is the first step on a long road that progressively gets harder. I believe that I am physically ready for the challenges ahead, I my mental outlook on this path is that I will not give up, and that pain, sweat, and sleep deprivation is the price to pay to belong to the community. OSUT is jus they main thought right now, because it is the first step of many
