I'm a cadet at a Southern military college going through Army ROTC. Several cadets and I have gathered informally over the past semester with the goal of preparing ourselves for serving as Army officers. So far, the things we have done include alot of PT, ruck marches, some boxing and grappling, and group studies of various books on military science and history. If some the current of former Soldiers here could share their suggestions, we'd all be grateful.
