basically bring your personal identification, checking account info if you have one,- an activated phone card, a small bible, slim back wallet, and that's about it- everything else will be shipped back, and they provide what you need there- my daughter ships in March.

Plus you have to pack stuff for the night at the hotel before MEPS. If you don't have someone seeing you off at MEPS that can take this stuff home it will be mailed home in "the box".. Shower stuff (if you don't want to use the stuff provided at the hotel), pajamas and clothes for the next day, toothbrush & toothpaste, snacks, and whatever else you think you might need overnight. |

You won't get to wear the shoes, they'll get sent home. Everyone has to wear the new balance ones you get on night of arrival as part of the PT uniform (in boot, after boot your school may or may not require them, after that what sneakers are irrelevant). Honestly though, you'll wear your NWU's and Boots almost ALL the time.
