I LOVED boot camp food. I actually miss it sometimes. There definitely was no lobster, but they did serve fish and veal every now and then. Breakfast was awesome. You can get cereal at all 3 meals if you want, too. The salad bar was good too. And the desserts were delicious!

Nice, now I'm excited for bootcamp...kinda. It will be nice to have ok food and a few grand in the bank at the end.

Btw, how much do they deduct from your paychecks during bootcamp? (rough estimate) I'm going in as e3 so I'm hoping to have 2 grand in the bank at the end of the 2 months.

I dont think I can answer this too accurately, I am married so I had BAH and separation pay coming in. But most of the e1s and e2s in my division even had about $2k in their account by the end of boot camp. But that also depends on you and if you have bills coming out of your account or not.

i was wondering about the peanut butter shot its honestly the only thing ive been worried about. im allergic to penicillin but i dont remember telling meps that i faintly remember telling my recruiter that i was before going up to meps. so my question is do they ask who is allergic to penicillin while they administer the shots? i meet with my recruiter wednesday so obviously im going to check with him although i already called him and he says he thinks that its on my medical records
