enjoy the cold showers! and the sweat pants you get to wear until you get your utilities, they let a serious draft in. But it's hella easy.

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?
 

If its for the Navy you should give me his name im sure ill see him

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?
 

don't be so sure, they're probably going to start a bunch of new divisions that day. but you'll definitely make some good friends

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?
 

heres some advice: don't walk into boot camp assuming you will walk off base and buy a sportbike let alone have time to ride when you graduate.

Where are you going for bootcamp? And as far as buying a bike after bootcamp, do't buy anything from a dealer outside of a base!!! They ass rape you!!

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?

My best advice on the car/bike tip would be...waiting till you go home for a visit, but then again if you catch a deal, grab it..fuck it!!! Just be careful.

I was in the Army and during my training, we barely had time for anything. If they gave us time. Not sure how the Navy operates though. But, GOOD LUCK.

Where is your final duty station?

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?

Ohhh :shruggs When I went into the service, I told them I wanted to be at Ft. Bragg and wasn't signing till it was in my contract. Not sure how the Navy operates.

Do not buy anything until you get to your final duty station:nono . I'm pretty sure they will not ship that bike for you so I'd recommend waiting till you get to an actual base and not A school... That's why nobody at school had cars.. Shit you probably won't be able to leave base for while. I know I couldn't shit it was like 2 or 3 weeks before I could wear any clothes other than a uniform..

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?
 

i had a car in A school, after aircrew school i flew home and drove it back down to pcola for the rest of my training, i was down there for like 6 months though. but yea, very few people in school did have cars.

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?

Dude you're a fucking moron. How difficult is it to listen to what people are telling you. When we say you can't have a car during A school it means they WONT GIVE YOU BASE STICKERS TO DRIVE ON BASE which means you will be parking in the ghetto parking lot off base, paying whatever they charge per month to park there and your shit WILL get broken into let alone a sportbike siting out there and I guarantee it gets stolen. They broke the rear sliding window on my truck and stole all of my stereo equipment in that little parking lot off base there at NTC. Plus you have to walk to your baracks by a certain time if and WHEN they give you liberty and that base is really big so plan on hiking. Far. Stop being a prick and just listen or just do whatever you want and learn the hard way.

I got base stickers during A school and parked right behind my barracks. maybe it depends on the length of your schooling, i was an AT and it was a fairly long program:shruggs

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?
 

About how many weeks was yours? Mine is going to be 14 weeks. I'm in some advanced program for HT. 9 Days. 8 till the strippers :LOL

Re: Anyone Bootcamp Dec 13 Navy?
 

shit i don't remember, aircrew school was a month and i want to say aviation tech school was like 3 months. it was O-level though, i think I-level is longer. i'm not really sure, seems like i was in pensacola for like 5 or 6 months with a little bit of lag time
