Re: Questions about after basic training and before during A

I went to combined basic and AIT (US Army Infantry) in 1984...

I weighed 135 lbs when I got there. Graduated at 155 lbs...

The one pair of civies I took with me were worthless to me...

A buddy of mine went in at about 250 lbs. He graduated at about 215...

His civies were worthless too...

I'd say take the bare necessities to basic. If the Army doesn't issue it to you, you don't need it.

You'll have more freedom in AIT. Plan to have someone send you more stuff or buy more stuff once you get into AIT and know the rules there...

Thanks for your service.

Hooaahh (say it fast like a US Army Ranger, not long and drawn out like a Marine)....
