Short update: DS is in week 7 of OCS and is doing well. He just sent us the packet for Family Day and OCS Graduation. Very stoked to have the final PFT behind him. Combat Fitness test today. Finish line is in sight! Humbled by what he's accomplished so far and proud of his perseverance. Lots of DORs after week 4, a few dropped for attitude and a couple last week getting sidelined by injury.

Congrats! Awesome accomplishment. A little advice on OCS graduation - show up early so you get a good seat. They had a basic refreshment stand last year where you could buy water and Gatorade. Enjoy - special weekend indeed.
Final update: despite a significant injury close to the end DS was graduated early, the same day 9 other guys were dropped. I told him this is a significant acomplishment that will change the course of his life. Now it's on to recovery, medical clearance, graduation and commissioning. Thank you to all the posters who provided feedback and information over the past 3 years,

Congrats to DS and the family.
Really tough to get the MO schollie - if you can get by without the scholarship PLC is the way to go.
