Someone -- I didn't keep track -- said that Bush DID go to OTS. When I asked
if OTS attendees were considered to be enlisted men, I got nothing back.


Personnel attending officer training programs typically do have
enlisted rank, even if only for administrative purposes (IIRC, I was an
E-2 while in ROTC in college, although the closest I ever came to
wearing a uniform with enlisted rank were the cadet ranks during my
first two years of ROTC).

Several enlisted troops in my group have been selected for OTS, and
will maintain their enlisted rank until completion of training, at which
time they will be discharged from enlisted service and then sworn in
as 2Lt's.
