how to handle bootcamp

Hey Erika, you can do this. It's normal to be nervous. Just listen and pay attention to detail. I have some helpful suggestions from a Recruit that was sent home for Medical reasons that I'd be glad to share with you. If you know your 11 General Orders and the other things you need to know before you ship, you won't have to worry about them in boot camp. That will be one less thing you have to worry about, because you'll have enough on your mind. Kristin just went through boot camp and she was nervous, but she said it wasn't so bad. Hopefully she'll come aboard and answer your questions and calm your fears. As for mail, your friends probably told you how much they appreciated the extra support, so we'd be glad to write you as well. Eight weeks goes by faster than you think, but I know that the first three are the hardest.

Hang in there. We are your biggest fans!
