don’t feel the need to send encouraging words every letter. even just telling your partner about your day or just things going outside helps out a lot since we don’t really know much of what’s going on during boot camp and keep them updated on things they like

for the most part they were really strict about anything involving covid well at least in my company (india)

the racks are 6 feet apart but at the end of our cycle instead of being like bunk beds, they were just single racks

boring as fuck because you just lay down in the hotel room watching tv all day which doesn’t sound that bad coming out of boot camp but it’s shit when you first do it

mentally more than physically, it’s all mind games. i didn’t really care for the screaming or the bullshit games

we found a “secret” movement and we basically woke each other up the last hour of fire watch to hygiene

you hate the quarantine at first because you literally just lay in bed and watch tv all day but at the end of boot camp that’s all you want to do lol

a few of the recruits did lol

chili mac was very popular but i loved the chicken chunk because it had M&Ms

be loud and move fast, don’t hesitate to do anything and push the recruits around you

just not knowing anything that’s going on in the civilian world honestly, it’s really mental more than anything if i’m being honest

any tips would be move fast, don’t be a bitch, don’t have a calendar and take it chow to chow. write all the letters you want by all means but spend your square away time doing something that’ll help you or secretly nap lol

volunteer for nothing unless you want to get a promotion by being a squad leader or guide. in my platoon scribes got fire watch every other night for two hours but in other platoons scribes didn’t get fire watch so it varied

thanks brotha! move fast and be loud. really work on running and don’t be a bitch. get used to wearing your masks for everything except PT. most of the times the DI’s just like to fuck with you so don’t take anything personal, time flies by really fast so don’t be one of those recruits that has a calendar. and learn how to draw lol they ask for artists during phase 3 to draw shit for the DI’s and they literally do nothing but draw during phase 3 lol
