What can you or should you bring to MOS school

The temperature wasn't really that bad. Sure, we had 110+ degree weather but since it's dry heat and not humid like the East Coast, it was good. You will PT in the mornings from about 0600 to 0700. On Fridays (I was 0621), we ran section runs and once a month is a company run. You'll be running a lot and much further than in boot camp. You'll find yourself running up and down hills and sand. It isn't bad but can suck.

Good luck

You are not allowed to have POV in MCCES B Co. A and C co allow their students to have POV since some are there for a year or more.

Ipod and laptops are fine, but keep them locked up if you are not around. Don't get CRT TVs while you're there; if you can't take it on a plane easily when you leave, don't buy it from the PX.

Bring a few items of civilian attire. I estimate that you'll be there around early May based on your ship date. Expect weather to be in the 90s and up. In July, the temperatures can reach 120.

To possibly help figure out which company you will go to:
A Co) If your Occ field starts with 28XX and 59XX
B Co) 06XX
C Co) 59XX goes here after they take their basic courses at A Co.

If you end up at A Co or C Co, you WILL be eligible for TMO. That means you can get people to move all of your crap to your new duty station for free!

But my suggestion for now is bring ONLY the stuff you need for MCT. When you get to comm school they'll give you a mailbox so you can have everything you want mailed to you.

OP said he was a 0651 so he's going to be in B Co (which absorbed D Co.)

C Co. also instructs 72xx MOS. The 72xx do not go to A Co. first.

B Co does not get TMO benefits so when you leave MOS school, you are moving yourself. Don't get stuff that won't fit in your seabag(s) and/or cannot bring on a plane or bus. Laptop computer and iPod are fine, but no desktops if you are in B Co.
