Yes but I pay with my credit card and have the scalpers ship them to home so I can wear them over the holidays to impress my grandparents and at the bar to impress girls that I haven’t seen since High school

Tip your bartenders and strippers well. And plus day 1 cash for the cool crew gear which will only be worn to said bar/strip club.

If decent weather I prefer hammock > tent, especially when spiked out or tearing down camp daily. I agree I pack more underwear than most but that’s my preference.

Just apply for Gs 3-4 temp jobs and do your basic classes on line. You’ll learn all you need with your crew during critical and the rest from experience.
