You're very welcome! Look forward to see you in the group!

Another thing you can practice is Recruit Handwriting if you haven't started that yet. It's not difficult, just one more thing to have out of the way and under the belt. I'd also look up videos on YouTube about how to fold shirts, socks, and whatnot if you don't already know. With rank and recognition it's a good idea to be able to describe the collar devices and whatnot. This link can help you with that: http://bootcamp4me.com/branches/us-n...scription.html

She's pretty cool and has some really great videos with good info.

Hope this helps!

Once you've arrived at bootcamp make sure you get the Chain of Command down. And on rank and regconition make sure you memorize the description of each symbol like for example for a senior Chief collar device is, "Gold fouled anchor with a silver, superimposed USN with a silver star." And make sure you know what they wear on there dress blue sleeves, which from the example above would be, "One silver star, perched eagle, one rocker, speciality mark, and three cheverons." These questions come up during uniform inspections, be ahead of the game.
