> 1... < 100...
It completely depends on your blood test and past immunization record. I got two or three plus the Penicillin shot during P-Days; then one more near the end... some got five or six both times.

What do they look for in your records? The region you lived in or do they notice problems in your blood?

Haasino, at RTC do they do titter tests to check immunity?
At OCS they do titters (a blood test) and anything you are immune to you don't need the shot. I got 6 over 2 sessions.

I'm not 100% sure, but I have to assume so... I didn't provide any immunization records, and they knew on my second visit that I didn't need a number of shots other recruits got. They drew 5 vials from me during P-Days...

That won't really change how many shots you get.

Are the shots we are receiving going to be with the traditional syringe? Or are they going to be with those horrifying gun-like syringes?
