  I leave next week lol so uh yeah I’m concerned for the running part I got everything else down though. Anyone who’s reading this, start running a mile every other day and increase it by +25 meters until you reach a mile and a half. Then once you do that, run a mile and a half every other day, and like maybe a week or two before you leave, start running it everyday. Please please please consider this advice bc it helps for runners who (like me) are kinda bad at running honestly. Lol. But yeah wish me luck or pray<br><br>* UPDATE * -&gt; I’m in the fleet now (on the ship). Went through bootcamp already (JUL212021) and I went through A School. You’re going to learn a lot about yourself and what you can truly do, keep going and don’t stop. I now can run 10miles and 3 as well without stopping before bootcamp I could barely run 3 mins straight, keep going guys. Praying for all who are reading this. 💛

  That ride on the bus from the airport to Boot Camp is the quietest bus ride you will ever take.

  Underwear is called skivvies. &nbsp;Best advice is not to draw attention to yourself. Just do what you are told. &nbsp;I went to boot camp in 1978 and was assigned to a staff company, which was a lot easier than being in a regular company. &nbsp;Don’t take what the rdc’s tell you personally. I remember being in the 3rd or 4th week and our rdc was yelling at us about not getting any flags and blah blah blah. The next day we received at least 3 flags. They do that to motivate you.

  You did a great job! I am an old Navy vet (1976-80). My son is now serving in his 11th year. Some things never change. Just keep in mind it is mostly a head game. Don&apos;t draw attention to yourself! Firefighting, shoring the ship (flooding), and the gun range is the most fun. You will make long term friendships. I am a Facebook friend with my RPOC! &nbsp;Good luck to all! Oh, if you play an instrument or can sing, or want to carry state flags, VOLUNTEER! You will go to special divisions that perform for the graduations. That is the ONLY thing you want to volunteer for! LOL
