I doubt he fears water..

What he fears is the swim portion. This is what boot camp is all about. You get over your fears or you do not become a Marine.

Its not a big thing. Swim week is very fun and relaxing.
 
If your son is afraid of water, he will lose that fear real quick. The fear of what the drill instructor will do to him if he doesn't swim will overpower his hydrophobia.
 
If you look on the airforce obstical course (not saying he's going into the airfore) each obstical says what fear it deals with and thats just what the marines are doing! Teaching you to overcome your fears! And to become a better man!!!!
