You don't need to. They were asking about showers. Maybe some people are used to really nice luxury 30 minute hot showers or something. If you want to make the "transition" to boot camp showers easier, get used to freezing cold showers right when you wake up. They might or might not happen in boot camp, but it probably will at some point.

In the end, it's just a shower.. you don't need to over analyze things.
