Suggestions for prior enlisted commissioning through ROTC?

Understand that ROTC is cadet land and not the Army. Don't get frustrated with the training.

Triple edged sword. Most said it can help you, edge one. Just remember how it can hurt by letting your ego lead (edge two), being a FKIA, etc. Think about the third edge that can give you a boost in your leadership growth and that is how it can help others. Hone that one. Edge one will take care of itself.

I went through ROY after serving 4 years on active duty. You will probably find a lot of other prior service cadets thesedays. Remember that ROTC is really a recruiting program so it will not be as intense as the regular Army. You are probably going to be a lot more mature than the non-prior cadets. Have fun,but don't succumb to all the frat boy antics. Have the moral courage to lead by example.
