What did you think of Basic training?
Basic training sucks ass. The squadrons you DONT want to be in for basic are (In order from worst to best) 321st, 320th, 323st(they were talking about dissolving 323 while I was there, I dont know if they have).
The squadrons you WANT to be in are the 324th, the 331st, and the 322nd.
Each squadron handles their training differently, some of them are hardcore. We got out asses ripped every day at the 321'st, which made two guys in my flight have mental breakdowns, and several people tried to commit suicide in the 320th, whereas the several times I got sent to the 324th for extra duty (KP, Linen teams, etc) the TI's never yelled unless there was a reason to. One of the worst things about the 321'st is you can look out the window of your bay, and see mcdonalds, cause its the only squadron that sits next to the gate to the base. Just remember your reporting statement. Memorize that motherfucker before you get there,YOU WILL NEED IT! And remember: "The quickest way through basic is to not stand out." That means when you get there, don't have anything but 2-3 changes of clothes, and maybe a book in your bag. Dont wear anything there but a plain T-shirt and jeans, get your hair cut down to about an inch and a half, not too short, not too long, not gelled or styled. Be as PLAIN as possible, cause that way it makes you less of a target when you get off that bus. If they ask for volunteers while you're all sitting in a little room or say something to the effect of "Who's the Smartest/loudest/been in rotc, etc, dont raise your fucking hand. It will only get you in trouble later, cause theyll assign some banal job to you that you'll be stuck with for the rest of the 6 weeks. Being on laundry crew, or latrine crew, as stupid as they seem, is a hell of alot easier than being a Dorm Chief, or a bay leader.
And the most important rule of all is:
KEEP YOUR FUCKING MOUTH SHUT!
