HEADQUARTERS, DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY OCTOBER. 1969 FOREWORD The constantly increasing complexity of warfare is imposing a con­ tinuing demand for a high degree of competence on the part of the Army's military leadership. Stability operations conducted at the request of a friendly nation have made it mandatory that the Army have top caliber leaders assigned to units of all echelons. One of the major sources of such leadership in the past has been the Army's Officer Candidate Schools. The performance of officers obtained by means of these schools has been sufficiently outstanding to cause the Army to incorporate the officer candi­ date system as a permanent element in the Army Officer procurement program. This pamphlet is designed to provide detailed information on the Army's OCS program to all military personnel who are interested in qualifying for admission to Officer Candidate School. Readers of this pamphlet will gain a clear understanding of the qualifications required for admission. If you are qualified for attendance at Officer Candidate School, it is your privilege to apply.

  • After Harvard: Considering Military Service
    After Harvard: Considering Military Service A publication of the Harvard Veterans Alumni Organization comprised of Harvard graduate students and alumni. Ofce of Career Services, Harvard University, Faculty of Arts and Sciences: www.ocs.fas.harvard.edu Dear Reader, As veterans of the military who are now part of the Harvard community, we know how daunting the decision to join America’s armed forces can be. This is especially true at a place like Harvard where military service is definitely the path less traveled. We know the questions are numerous. What is life in the military really like? Should I join the Army or the Marine Corps? What will it mean for my future career if I spend four years in the military after my time at Harvard? Who should I talk to about this decision? These are just some of the countless questions that people who have never served and people who have never been to Harvard just have a tough time helping you answer. This pamphlet was put together by a group of Harvard graduate students, many of whom attended Harvard College, served in the US military, and came back to campus to attend one of Harvard’s various graduate programs. In it, they seek to provide you with answers to the questions and access to the resources that they wish they had known about when they were in your shoes. This pamphlet is not recruiting material. Rather, it is meant to be straight talk about military service and what it means to serve in the military after attending a school like Harvard.
