Just remember that "Leap" commercial and know that if you put your mind to it, you can accomplish it.

As long as you dont freak out when you hit the water you'll be fine. Its more in your head than anything.
Good luck, im 17 days behind ya!

Ummm, you live in Minnesota, the land of 10000000000000 lakes, along with me. Swimming is easy, just relax and dont freak, panicing uses up more energy and will just make you drown and we dont want that! It's a nice day out here, go find a lake and try to do a little swimming, having any prior experience will make boot camp just that much easier.
Just make sure not to panic and you'll do fine, I'm 31 days behind you, just keep pushing yourself.

I ship the same day. Stay motivated. I am going to Parris Island though. But, together you and I from across the country will graduate on the same day as Marine's. Remember why you joined keep that at heart and swimming will not compare to anything. Good luck.
