Commissioned Officer Training (COT)…Revisited
I have had a lot of questions lately about COT. This brings me back to when I was searching the web for resources about COT. I was looking for stuff the official website was not going to tell me. Questions like, what time do you really wake up? Is there a lot of yelling? How hard is the Physical Training? Do I get any sleep?
The most common question I have got is about how hard is it to complete the full 5 weeks. My answer to that person is that we all have graduated with a undergraduate degree and some of us with a masters or doctorate. If you can survive school you can survive COT. No doubt. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to email me and I will help you out with any question. The memory is fresh in my mind. Here are some more pictures from the 5 weeks.
Let me leave with that COT was a well worth adventure. I came out with friends that moved all throughout the country and I will have a place to stay wherever I go. Also, being in the AF and having this shared experience with all the direct commissioned officer makes me feel connected no matter where I end up.
Cheers all and I hope to hear from you!
