Boot Camp Hi,
My best friend enlisted in the army, and she's going to boot camp this summer. I'm not so sure I want to know this, but what can she expect?

Location: fort jackson SC or fort leonard wood MO.
they're both hot as fuck in the summer, like most places the army trains at. the first three or four days are gay as hell, uniform issue, staying awake, learning how to make a bed, etc. thats all inprocessing shit. Then, day five or six is when the drill instructors pick them up. they have about three days or so(whats called week zero) of getting smoked, learning how to march, then they get their TA-50 issue(TA-50 is body armor, poncho, rucksack, etc) then week one starts. from there on, its just stupid shit. rifle ranges on week four, week five is hell week(involves a lot of crawling), ruck march at the end of week five, then weeks six thru nine are machine gun and grenade ranges, followed by a field excercise of about five days, and another ruck march. its gonna be a lot more cuddly than when I went through, because 1: she's a girl 2:fort jackson and leonard wood are training posts for people who will never see real combat and 3: the army has to be "kinder nad gentler" than it used to be because the trainees that are coming out of america now are a bunch of sissies and wouldn't be able to handle the real thing.
if it was four years ago, at a combat arms training post, the it might be hard.
tell her to drink water, and not fuck around with the male trainees. thats a big problem in sissy boot camp. ]
