Is it okay to attend WOCS with this rucksack?

I understood, but you message can be misunderstood by some. All NCOs aren't the brightest. I don't agree with the initial answer either, but take into consideration that you might be a part of a different generation of Soldier. I have 16 years in and will tell you that when I was a PVT I would have shrugged this off and continued to find someone who would give me the right answer..... or as your message possibly could have misconstrued; the answer that I wanted.

SSG (Join to see) - Really? Your a SSG which means you have been to PLDC or whatever they call it now I think Warrior something....probably been to BNOC each one of those NCO's schools had a packing list. and I bet you understood that and had everything now attending Warrant school and we suddenly forgot all of that? Your right on one thing I'm from a different generation. SMDH...... bc an NCO is stating all NCO's aren't the brightest.....NCO's and Soldiers are smarter than ever before.....

1. Are you saying that all NCOs are the brightest?
2. Who exactly forgot what about a packing list?
3. I did not grow up in a professional environment in the Army, and only noticed that when I started handling NCO business. I had to learn to become a professional; your generation is who taught me how to answer a question with a question. This type of leadership is inefficient to say the least.
4. I know what my Rank is, and also what proffesional schools I have attended; no need to reiterate for me.

Best of luck to you SSG.......

No problem, good luck.

I think CW2 (Join to see) has it nailed, WO1 (Join to see). When I went to OCS (a million years ago), those that did not bring what was required, suffered. It's hard enough without bringing needless heat on yourself right out of the chute for not doing what they asked before you arrive. I can hear it now. "This guy can't follow instructions." "This guy thinks he knows what he needs for our course better than we do."
Get the large rucksack.

Thanks Sir, I'm getting on this issue ASAP

They issue you everything you need

I was there in '09 and seem to recall having the ability to draw certain OCIE / TA-50 items if you didn't have them, like you said, for uniformity sake.
