So I am a deep south boy, born in New Orleans then moved to Los Angeles for some years then back to New Orleans; I now live in North Carolina. As you could imagine, I am used to very mild winters and never had any snow till the last few years living in North Carolina, but even then it was very short lived. I am shipping to Great Lakes in the middle of January and am bracing myself for my coldest winter yet. I know that I will be issued everything that I need, my question is what will I be wearing on a daily basis at RTC to keep warm? Also, I know that my uniform cost al lcomes out of my check, how much is that exactly and is it all taken out of my first check?
