Interesting to hear! I wish I had been able to qualify with the ACOG.

I'm Army, and we used optics (not ACOGs) only once during basic, and it was for familiarization, not qualification.

Heck, I've only even seen my unit train and qualify with ACOGs immediately before a deployment. Otherwise it's all iron sites for us.
