Reserve Officer Training Corps...you do military training while you in school and when you graduate you are comissioned as an officer (so long as you pass boot camp between your third and fourth years). You owe four years of active duty and then three in the Reserves, but I plan on making it a career.

Sounds exciting, Rudder. I wish you best luck with that. I have utmost respect for the American Armed Forces and at least from what I know about you, I think you will make a very skilled officer. ;great;

If you failed boot Camp, (which I doubt you would do,) would you have to Pay back the US armed forces in some way? Or would they just drop you and you'd have to finish your Uni by yourself?

Yeah you'd probably have to pay them back and finish on your own, or make you redo it. They don't really tell you that stuff :lol: they try to prepare you to pass; officer boot camp is harder than regular (for obvious reasons).

Any idea on how big the fail margin is though?

Supposedly around 20% fail or get "recycled" (made to start over from Day 1), but that number can vary greatly from class to class.

HIC, I demand that you bludgeon yourself with a rock until your mental status returns to the level of a rapist who calls back to apologise! Your use of elaborate language and words is making me uneasy. Although, I am somewhat relieved to see that your punctuation remains shit-based.

It was ridiculous. :lol: Them constantly screaming at us, us having to scream back, all the while standing for attention at hours at a time, doing loads of PT (physical training), going to classes on uniforms, insignia, etc and having to SIT at attention. Them running in in the middle of the night and flipping our beds over, screaming the whole time, them just playing ridiculous mind games with us like making a "throne" with our sea bags for one of them to sit on. It was crazy but a good experience for me.

Is that a challenge? Have you not seen the Youtube footage of me? At my family New Year's Eve party, where I mercilessly chased my four year old cousin around in a drunken rage, attempted to hit him with a plastic, illuminating lightsaber whilst yelling 'Piñata, piñata!', before tripping over my own pair of slippers and falling over, crushing the fleeing juvenile as I did so? Well, neither have I.
