What would I need to look into to build a strong Green to Gold packet for my rank?

I have had a few of my Soldiers go OCS over the last few years. The packet requirements have been different in a few cases, but some of the big items were consistent high APFT scores, college transcripts and Command letters of Recommendation. My Brigade Commander wrote me a solid letter of recommendation when I applied for OCS. Best of luck to you and if you aren't accepted the first time, take the recommendations, better your packet and don't give up.

Do your job, excel where you can. Prove that you uphold the characteristics and traits of what it takes to be a strong leader. Take on challenging duties and assignments. Support your organization, max your PT if possible, live up to Army values on and off duty. Get some advanced education under your belt. Ensurebtge woman in your life is ready for the lifestyle of a Soldier by introducing her to other Army spouses and getting her involved where possible. There are very few leaders who are successful without a supportive spouse, man or woman. The rest will fall into place. These are all things you should be doing anyway. Thank you for your service.

You only live once, so live it large today. If you are inclined to go Green to Gold then, nothing can prevent you from achieving your Everest, except you yourself. Never give up and keep focus on your objective; the finish line is already in sight. All the best SPC(P) (Join to see) .
