Take care of yourself, POOLEEOO3OCT24. From what I have read and from what I have heard "the nerves" happen to everyone. You will do fine, especially since you have had such fine encouragement and tutelage from members of this web site. All in all, when it comes right down to it, it's all up to you. Never give up, never quite. You will do fine.

Have a fun time, the first two weeks are the best. Your DIs are the friendliest human beings on the Earth! Never quit, semper fi!

poolee,
Good luck to you. And remember we all have been there and done that never say I can't. If you can't you won't . AT times it will be minute by minute not knowing what you have done incorrectly. Don't worry about that the recruits are probably thinking the samething if they did something wrong. Do not take anything personal. You are all equal to the drill instructors.
Good Luck and let us know when you get back. Just keep thinking Eagle, Globe, and Anchor..OOORAH...Get some...!!!

well I am not going to the airport Monday but I will be the first one you see when you get off my bus.............................Bring nothing with you......shave your head b4 coming so I can use you as a working party as the others get their haircut.
only bring your packet the recruiter gave you and the clothes on your back...no Marine shirt. DO NOT BRING ANYTHING ELSE!!!!!!!!! PREPARE FOR HELL UNTIL YOU WALK ACROSS MY GRINDER AND YOU ARE GOING TO GOLF COMPANY.........DI
