Officer training?

[Eric Hood]

Marines!
How long is the Marine Officer Infantry school? Does any one have a rough outline of the training? What's the attrition rate? I am asking, due to the inclusion of women into the training. This is a really tough school. Was it always this tough?

Think it is 11 or 12 weeks and yes it is very rough training they are going to be Officers In the Marine Corps. I was told once that about 20% to 30% do not make it. But you can find out more by going to Marine.com they have a very good outline on what they do and why.

Read the physical part is like an Iron Man's competition.

Thanks, will do. I never realized just how demanding it was.
