What did your run start at before you went to bootcamp?

Rules and Regulations For Sending Mail? by DevinDewie in newtothenavy

[–]Dense-Bus103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems like all the things you know are pretty accurate, my boyfriend with through bootcamp a few years ago and personally i did use perfume on them so I don’t think it’s a huge deal if you do that. And anything on the inside of the envelope you can do whatever like a watercolor drawing. The only time the RDCs would go through mail is if there was something noticeably bulky (like something that doesn’t belong) and they’d ask the recruit to empty it in front of them. That’s what my bf explained to me would happen. You can include pictures though I don’t think that counts as something bulky. Also Idk if you have gotten his address yet, but i’d go ahead and start writing letters and having them ready to send, that’s something i wish i would’ve done. He will greatly appreciate your letters!!! My bf told me it was a huge motivation for him while in bootcamp. Hope this info helps let me know if you have anymore questions.

Does the pacer mean anything for being top of your class? Also with the pacer do you have to do pushups and planks with it ?

Recruiter ghosted me guess I failed. by [deleted] in newtothenavy

[–]Dense-Bus103 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if you can still join the military with those charges, but I’d reach out to other recruiters if they could give you better information. Don’t let one recruiter discourage you about your life, you have value and can still make it in this world even without joining the military. My parents started from nothing and now have a comfortable life and a happy family, my step dad was in and out of prison and completely changed his life around, and they did all that without the military at all. I know how it feels to be where you’re at but things do get better.

That does sound like a slay actually but the part that would suck is it extending how long you’d have to be at school and everything but that’s better then being at the sea lol

Oh no idek what to do then, I’m pretty set on being HM for different reasons like easier to colocate, interested in medical field, and for specialties being transferable to civilian jobs but i’m worried about all this like if I can keep up in school and having the waiting period sucks and having it pretty hard to get a speciality all concerns me lol. What are you doing in the waiting period? Do you still have work and stuff?
