Are there any drawbacks to going into bootcamp with a friend in the buddy system? Would that be something the D.I. would use and F*** with you for?

You give them a reason and they will. If you both want to go you can join and go at the same time. In boot camp you don't have time to chat with your friend.
The only drawback is the fact that you can't visit your friend! I went in with two friends and we never,,ever spoke to each other until graduation day! We didn't have family day in those days. As to the second part of your question, the DIs won't know you have a friend, why would they? They don't have time to sit and read every little detail about his recruits!Quote:

dont go around holding your buddies hand and telling people, "we are on the buddy program."
check that: when you get there hold youre buddies hand and say, "good evening sarge we are here on the buddy program and our recruiter said we could be rack buddies"
I just had the funniest visual!
Yea, I can hear the recruiter now, "YOU BOYS HOLD HANDS SO YOU WON'T GET SPLIT UP, AND TELL THE MAN IN THE FUNNY HAT :evilgrin:THAT I SAID YOU COULD SLEEP TOGETHER", ------:sick:---------NOT! But try it, who knows---it may work for you guys!
