I did mine in 2016. Be prepared to be mentally and physically exhausted. It will push you. Take the time to learn some scout material. Know how to disassemble and reassemble weapons (M9, M4, M240B, .50 Cal.) It will push you and your team. You will get angry, you will get tired but be prepared for the fuck fuck games. It's all tradition, just embrace the suck and soldier on. You'll look back at it and bask in the glory which is the order of the spur. Good luck.

Don't quit, stay hydrated, and maintain a sense of humor no matter what happens to you -- enjoy the moment for what it is and tell the tale a thousand times when it is over embellishing more each time -- Good Luck
