At 31 she has a lot more life experience than some student just getting out of college at 22. She’ll instantly have more respect than that 22 year old recent college grad.
Age doesn't mean a damn thing compared to how they carry themselves. A leader is a leader. You're born with it. We had a first sergeant who the whole company would swear the guy had dementia. That's probably a whole different issue.
@@rogerwilco5918 I agree. My grandfather was awarded a battlefield commission in Korea and promoted to an officer rank due to the leadership he demonstrated on the field of battle and because there was a shortage of officers fighting in Korea at the time. He never had any proper officer training but he made a damn fine leader. He was able to become a lieutenant colonel before finally retiring in 1970 after 26 years of service. He intentionally retired before he made colonel because in his words, at the rank of colonel and above you get involved in army politics, but all he wanted to be was a soldier and a leader first and foremost.
It does sound cliche and dramatic.... but it's true. Going through basic training and OCS are indeed life changing events. Thank you for your service! You are appreciated! 🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸👍
Give credit where credit is do young college student going through basic then officer basic course my hats off too you. For those that don’t know they’re literally treated worse then privates great job for any and all that make it through.
No they aren’t. I’ve gone through basic twice as an enlistee, they can deal with doing it twice while getting paid e-5. I swear commissioned officers will find anything to bitch about.
@@worstbehaviorstories…Doing ROTC you still have to go through OCS. I would think someone coming out of an academy would be on a power trip and also be the best at what they do.
@@jamesphillips5868 perhaps but as I said this was just from my experience. They always eventually get humbled and end up growing in their role and they become much better officers for it in the end. Just an observation I made from when I was in.
@@jamesphillips5868that’s not true, if you graduate from an accredited college while in rotc you automatically get promoted to 2nd Lieutenant. You do go to BOLC for you branch but not OCS because you’re already a Lieutenant.
@@michaelbrooks9143let’s be honest here the senior NCOs know a lot more than the new younger officers so it’s best to learn from them and take the ropes slowly.
@@michaelbrooks9143😆 I guess my experience was a bit different as a grunt.. No grunt Sergeant is going to get stripes if he can't work a compass and a map.
If you are in the Philippines your rejected.. Even if you are professional or with a degree.. They are very strict with comes in ages.. Age limit is 21 to 25.. I think our soldiers in coming years will lessen..
@@ErickaBernie What I want to explain is, in the age of 31 yrs old your no longer qualified in the Officer Candidate Course in the Philippines .. Here's the qualification.. -Applicants must be graduates of Baccalaureate degree, natural-born Filipino citizen, single with no parental obligation, at least five-feet tall both for male and female, physically and mentally fit, and at least 21 years old & not a day older than 27 years old upon taking the oath.. .. That's why I said it will lessen the applicants for soldier because of the new age requirements..
I agree Women should not be wearing makeup in the Military or in the Police force and their hair should be cut short just like the Men , it’s bad enough that the standards are lowered to help Women qualify particularly in the Military , the double standards and hypocrisy is laughable !
@@willm678 It’s Unbelievable that the American Military allows this to happen obviously they are dictated to by the very weak liberal Biden administration which is slowly destroying America from within . Countries like China and Iran will be laughing at this sort of thing as they don’t even have to lift a finger to destroy America just sit back and watch the circus play out ! Well done the Obamas and Biden’s !
@@jaimeramirezXPNo. he went In young, dumb, and full of cum, like a real fucking troop. Not some nerd that thinks he knows more than a PFC because he went to college. Some people don’t want to be a lame ass military manager, and want to actually put war heads on foreheads. It’s great you got your bachelors in arts tho.
OCS for college graduates is not selective unlike for current soldiers, anyone can choose to do it and its not like a huge portion that do it fail or something lmao. if its bc shes 31, up to 35 and tbh 36 or 37 with a waiver can still do it.

@@willm678reminds me of white house down! Good movie and perfect example of you said.
27 have a bachelor degree trying to join the Air Force but need to lose some weight first. After I’m in I’ll try and become a officer.
Keep us posted
Best of luck
Commission first. Don’t enlist first. That’s a big mistake.
Go in as an officer, if you go in as enlisted it’s going to be so much harder to commission
If you're a fat slob, you'll make a great air force officer.

Atleast they get paid as an E5, while being a cadet. That's a plus

@@moegreene3630 not more than enlisted; case and point you’re bitching.
Privates aren't treated so badly in this new Army.. we don't like hurting their feelings anymore.
Treated worse than a private? Hahahaha
Best officers are out of OCS.
In my experience this is true. For some odd reason the ones I knew that came out of ROTC were always on a power trip.

I am proud of you. Lead from the front.
Very nice
Yes, this is very good
listen to your sergeants
The best thing a young officer can do is to be quiet and learn from the senior NCO’s.
The same nco’s that can’t even spell land navigation, right?

True but never give your power or leverage away

Thanks

"Ft. Benning"?? What's that?
Just kidding, so glad we got rid of the names of traitors to our country on our bases.
(I'm also a Fort Benning alumni)
demoncrats got rid of their heroes
Is that a narrative or is there a legal documents that said state secession was traitorous?
Hr still raw. Needs to work on skill development and shot making
Hello Mme... Still proud of You... love from Australia DrEva
Army Go pew🫡
🙄😒🙄
Excuse me but that makeup....should be a no go. I am a US Army Veteran 80's-90's. In that time it was totally unacceptable ...

Have you seen the Army now? Look up Major Rachel Jones and you’ll be very disappointed. This woman’s makeup should be the least of your concerns. 😂

I went there for my mos training in the marines. Army females graduated from basic gave up that box so easy. Every week it was fresh box
31😂 wtf 😳 If I'd join the Marines at 31 PT would have killed me. 😂 Army... quanity over quality.
Then go join the marines.
@@ErickaBernie You are so dense you're unaware that was an insult...
Thats great now go home
90 day womder is what we called those butter bars.
What?
@Ericka Bernie OCS is a 90 day course to become an officer.
Officer Candidate School , hence 90 day wonder
Butter bar - 2nd Lt is a brass bar.
Just a shiny private.
