What MOS has your recruiter convinced you of? Do you know that there is a second test to see if you can get the MOS that what you want? Get ready to strip off all your clothes till your butt naked, then go in reverse,,,do that as fast as you can for as long as that drill instructor gets tired...and that MF'er is a$$ 0. The regular metal trash can lids on parish island shine like mirrors(no exaggeration)and they're all beat up....and they make the platoon brush the floors with little hand brushes,,,, over and over and over and over and over ...forever.....and the sand fleas on that island?? Nightmare! Those fleas bite like nat's (no seem'ums) but worst. The drill instructor takes you outside and watches you suffer getting bit every where and you can't move... 3 months of that. I'll be honest..... I F'ing hated it, even now25 yrs later it wasnt worth it. I could honestly have someone write a good book of my experience alone in boot camp and i bet it would sell. put it this way, those drill instructors had a field day with me in a public airport as I walked off the plane from Boston. I was treated like chit chit chit for 3 hours in room under the airport as soon as I got off the plane. they try and break your a$$ every chance they get. We started with 60 recruits and ended up with 40 just like they had said.

* DO NOT volunteer for anything!
