Joshua A. Stout graduated from Officer Candidate School Phase III training at North Fort Lewis, Tacoma, Wash., and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army National Guard.
OCS students are selected, considered, and drawn from colleges, active-duty and Reserve Component enlisted ranks and direct commissionining.
The two-week Phase III training is the final phase of a three-phased, 14-month training period.
The national guard officer candidate received “basic soldiering” instruction in leadership, professional ethics, soldier team development, combined arms tactics, weapons defense, squad drill, intelligence, land navigation, maintenance, communications, staff and general military subjects, field training exercises and physical training and conditioning.
Officer candidates are tested and evaluated in leadership skills and team work abilities required of a commissioned officer.
Students utilize acquired skills to function in “leader and follower” positions in squad and platoon-sized elements in a stressful and demanding field environment involving various tactical situations.
He is the son of Lori Stout, Seminole.
