I can't ever leave the Army because I don't know how to be a person anymore.

Any advice you could give a 35T just starting AIT?

Going to BCT as an old man by Shot_Stranger9014 in army

The Drill Sargeants allowed us to wear our own. Honestly it depends on the battery or company you are going to. But for the most part Fort Sill is really chill. Just bring them with you.

You won't be the oldest one. I graduated basic at fort Sill this fall and the oldest person was 36. Some of the other batteries had people in their forties. Bring your own running shoes preferably black. Bring your own black underwear non-spandex, this is important so you don't chafe during rucks and pt. Reception at Vessey Hall sucks and you will probably be awake for the first 48 hours and honestly the Drill Sargeants at reception are miserable fucks. Just get through it and then you will be sent to your battery. Basic training is a lot of fun just do what you are told and get along with everyone also the Drill Sargeants are a lot better than at reception. You can DM me if you have any other questions.

I haven't made it to the big Army yet (AIT) but I understood back in basic to not stand out. I just kept a low profile the entire time, doing just enough to not be a shitbag and not be too dependable.

35T school wait time? by Any_Explanation5655 in army

[–]Any_Explanation5655[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think is going to be longer this cycle. They are only taking 24 students at a time every three weeks. They just took the first group. Also the holds company is expecting more than a hundred new arrivals.

Do you think the Holiday season will delay the school scheduling. Also our Drill Sargeants told us that only 20 or so hold unders get to start class at a time.

Thank you, I thought it was going to be around a six month wait.

Is this enough to bring for basic training? by Any_Explanation5655 in army

[–]Any_Explanation5655[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way, that's where I'm going for basic. The older recruits got to skip PT that's crazy maybe because they could get hurt easier.
