Oh yeah. My back was jacked for like 2 weeks when we finally left. Terrible. They could have used that time so much better. I arrived on a Tuesday and by Friday all of our events were done. So we sat on the benches ALL day. For Saturday and Sunday they kept us in the barracks until chow times. Then Monday we sat on the benches ALLLLL day again. I also really love that the uniform issue folks gave me a large regular, got mad when I said it was way to big, then would only give me a medium long. I'm 5'8. I need a medium regular.

To think, my first night I showed up at around 2300, didn't get to sleep till around 0100 to wake up at 0430, first thing I hear is "GET THE FUCK UP PRIVATES. HURRY UP, YOU WILL CONDUCT HYGIENE AND MAKE YOUR WAY OUTSIDE BY 0430."

I notice some full looking backpacks. Don't bring hardly anything. Spare shirt, 2in1 shampoo/conditioner, deodorant(no aerosol), and your paperwork is all you need. You'll spare yourself a lot of trouble. Females will want to bring hair products(no aerosols), bras(black or white sport and 1 regular in white), undies(plain muted colors like black, white, nude), and period products. The selection at the little shopettes suck and women who need larger cup sizes are likely to be completely out of luck. You can start to get mail fairly quickly so no big deal if you need something not completely essential.

Multiple two week quarantines. No shark attacks. No combatives. We didn't have to wear masks after we test negative but still treated us like were positive for covid. I was tested atleast 12 times throughout basic training. Some batteries didn't allow cadence due to covid. They ended up doing a battery with all covid positives to see how they would do instead of recycling them. We went straight to our unit instead of going to 43D

Then they took us to the barracks and tucked us in bed at midnight and said we would get 8hrs of sleep 😴. The next thing I knew it was 4:30 in the morning and a lot yelling and kicking of bunks.
