Maybe they should actually let Recruits buy insoles without having a medical chit, since all Recruits are afraid to goto medical. 
I also heard a rumor that they were going to replace the trainee guides with iPads. Did you hear anything about that? |
What they need to do is stop letting those civilians tell Recruits what boot size to get... I went down 2 sizes when I bought a new pair in Pensacola and actually fit them properly! No blisters that time...
As far as iPads... I wouldn't hold your breath. The Army tested a program at Sill and Jackson issuing smartphones with material loaded... it didn't last.
