I am going to Marine boot camp in Feb. of 2009. What all should I learn before going to make my stay easier for me? I have heard to learn the 11 General Orders, but what else would help me? Thank you so much!
 
Get into shape as much as possible, learn Marine corps history. And then get you affairs in order because once you leave it will suck to be you if something happens back home while your a boot.
 
Know your rank structure, customs, and courtesies (ie: who to salute, how to address a superior as a Marine or DI at boot camp as a recruit, etc.)
