I think I will just go ask my Recruiter I'm just waiting to go to Boot camp & want all the information I can have from others I will do the Best I can. Semper Fi
When I retired from the Army, as an Army Recruiter in 1999, all the services were providing their DEPs with lists of what to bring with you. Unless that has changed in the last 9 years, your recruiter should be able to provide you with such a list.
You're not a Marine - so give the Semper Fi a rest yea?
I would guess that millions of men have joined the Marines before. Very few felt compelled to jump on Y!A and ask every meaningless possible question available. You will be told what you MUST take. You will be told what you SHOULD take. Thats all you need to take.
