2LT(P) Private RallyPoint Member 4266370 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am currently attending traditional OCS (18 months) as a prior service soldier in the National Guard and I work ADOS (counterdrug). Since I work full time I am required to occasionally wear my uniform outside of OCS for Counterdrug trainings, assignments, etc. What rank should I be wearing since my state doesnt issue the &quot;OCS&quot; rank we just all looks like e1&#39;s (no rank). I cant seem to find any regs on what rank I should wear when I am at Counterdrug activities. Should I wear my original enlisted rank, no rank, or purchase and wear an &quot;OCS&quot; rank. Any thoughts? Since I'm ADOS while in state OCS, what rank should I be wearing (since my state doesn't issue the "OCS" rank)? 2019-01-07T11:53:51-05:00 2LT(P) Private RallyPoint Member 4266370 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am currently attending traditional OCS (18 months) as a prior service soldier in the National Guard and I work ADOS (counterdrug).

Just wear OCS if velcro OCS is available.

Then when you go for your drill take the rank off so you and your classmates are uniform. Good Luck at OCS if you ever need any help with STX lanes or OPORD shells feel free to reach out to me and I will be glad to help Response by 1LT Private RallyPoint Member made Jan 7 at 2019 12:35 PM 2019-01-07T12:35:16-05:00 2019-01-07T12:35:16-05:00 CPT Private RallyPoint Member 4266536 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Embrace the dot.
