As far as 800 divisions go, everything is different from a regular bootcamp experience. You'll PT everyday, most days at least twice a day. 800 divisions are held to a higher standard than regular divisions. We got up every morning at 0330 to go to to dive mo PT, whereas regular divisions weren't waking up til reveille at 0600. Study requirements... study your chain of command, as well as your general orders, everyday as much as you can. They will make you study while you eat, which means holding your study guide up with one hand and eating with other the whole meal. And as far as "going above and beyond" goes, don't try to do that. Do what they tell you do and listen to every detail. Don't be a dirtbag
