3. I've never heard of YCA being on the list that advances you. Its worth asking your recruiter, though at this point it may be too late.

4. Holidays tend to be relatively relaxed. You usually get at least part of the day off. And they do big meals for Christmas/Thanksgiving, which tend to be much more causal than any other time there.

5. Pay attention. Do as you're told. You'll be fine.

Thanks man!

3. Yeah I asked my recruiter but they have no idea what YCA is... Kind of a bummer since most of our "cadres" aka drill sergeants said that we would be able to enlist as e2/e3.

By the way how do we shop at the NEX? I'm confused, they give us a gift card? or do we bring cash
