The first day is always the worst. You'll be hating your life that first night in your rack and be thinking you made a huge mistake. You didn't though, that’s just how the first day goes.
always move with a sense of urgency.
whenever you lock your combination lock, always preset the first two numbers so you can quickly go to the last number and open it again.
Never, EVER look out a window unless ordered to.
keep your eyes on your plate when your eating and for god sakes remember to take your hat off in the galley. If you talk make sure to try and mask it by bringing some food up to your mouth.
If one of your D.I.s lowers his campaign cover so that you can't see his face and he gets quiet for a few seconds its because he's trying desperately not to laugh.
Keep one of your uniforms perfectly folded and pressed as an inspection ready uniform. never ever wear it except for inspections. then take it off and fold it nice and neat again for the next inspection.
Toothpaste = best belt buckle/button polisher in existence.
play to your strengths. If your good at ironing, take everyone’s uniform and iron them. someone else will be good at shining boots. he should be shining all the boots. Things go by a lot faster that way and you'll have more time for writing letters and such.
Go to the chapel every Sunday. even if your not religious, it's a nice time to sit down and relax for 45 minutes without having to scream or being screamed at.
Do not join the choir. it's a bad decision on your part.
if you think your up to it, give the honor guard a shot. I recommend it.
You'll think they're just trying to scare you when your DI's tell you they see and know everything. They're not. They actually can. so be careful what you say and do and where.
Everything you try and do to get escape the notice of the DI's has been tried. In fact it's probably been tried by the DI's when they went through boot so your not going to get away with anything.
Always always always step out with your left foot. There's nothing that draws attention more than being out of step in a marching company of 100 men and women.
i sure hope your not homophobic because they will be making you do some vary gay things. Standing heel to toe, showering in groups with a DI watching all of you at the doorway.
pay attention.
If your tired in the least bit, stand your ass up and move to the back of the class. They catch you sleeping in class and your .... well, try it and find out.
every test you take will be open note and so easy a 5th grader can pass it with an 80%. You'll have nothing to worry about.
No hats indoors unless your under arms.
your going to mess up and they are going to catch you doing it and they will make you feel like a bag of ass for it. It's all part of the experience.
don't worry if you suddenly realize you haven't taken a dump for 3 days strait when you first get there. No one does. the first few days your sphincter is so tight you couldn't crap jello.
when you get on/off base liberty, your first instinct will be to buy all the candy/pop/delicious food you can possibly carry. It's a waste because not only will you not be able to eat all of it, it will make you hella sick when it mixes with that galley food in your belly.
when you inevitably get back to your barracks and find everything trashed, keep in mind that it's probably more efficient if one person works on untying all the shoes will everyone else cleans. having 5 people working on untying the huge knot of shoelaces in the middle of the barracks ended up being slower then when we just had one guy doing it.
Even if you absolutely hate someone else in your training company, be nice. your relative happiness depends on the company as a whole so starting crap with other recruits only serves to make everyone less happy.
Write stuff down. When you leave boot, you'll begin to forget everything. write it down. all the funny stuff, all the cool stuff. keep a journal. even if it's just quick notes. once you get out of boot it will all be like a bad dream and start to fade from memory which is a shame because overall boot is pretty fun.
