EDIT: Your point does beget an interesting question though - any reason a guy can't have a pair of approved boots shipped to him in between OSUT and pre-selection?
IMHO, your time would be better spent searching and reading boot comments and doing PT, rather than looking for a magic carpet.

You might even take a few moments to fill in your profile.
