Happy

IF THERE'S LEADERSHIP IH YOI
OCS CAN BRING IT OUT.

OCS (Army Officer Candidate |
School) is a 14-week challenge to all
that’s in you... the mental, the physical,
the spirit that are part of what makes
a leader.
If OCS were easy, it couldn't do
the job. It wouldn't bring out the leader |
in you, or help you discover what
you have inside.
But when you finish and
graduate as a commissioned officer in
the Army, you 11 know. You 11 know
you have what it takes to lead. And
you'll be trim, alert, fit, and ready to
exercise the leadership skills that
civilian companies look for.

e-im
If you're about to get your degree and you want to develop your leadership ability, take the
OCS challenge.
Call your local Army Recruiter, and ask about OCS.
