Hi all!
Seems like I just barely got off the Military boards elsewhere, and here I am again!
My brother enlisted in the Army earlier in the month for Airborne Infantry. He'll be heading to bootcamp in Georgia (we think...) on the 26th. We've been trying to offer him all the advice we can think of. Unfortuately, it's been a long time since DH's plebe summer.
Any advice or tidbits of information you or your loved ones can pass on it greatly, greatly appreciated. We know he's nervous- mostly about his girlfirend staying with him and we've tried to put that in perspective as much as we can. We have gone over the "Always wear clean, DRY socks and underwear; sunscreen on the back of your neck and tops of your ears; baby powder works best for chaffing; never look a superior in the eye; what to expect when he first arrives; etc."
I just want him to finally succeed at something... and want him to be as prepared as possible. Thank you so much girls (and guys!)
xoxo
