The best video I’ve watched for basic training packing. Very informative, thank you!!
Very helpful, Thank you!
Like others have said, this is by far the most in depth & helpful vid I’ve come across!! I’m going to army national guard boot camp Jan 2024 🙏🏽🙌🏽
Thank you for taking the time to let us in on all the details! I’m curious tho I heavy cramps on my period and normally take just regular pain meds, I think I will start my cycle as soon as I get there! Where and When can I take it for my pain?
You will have to go to sick call. I will tell you that when you go to sick call you might miss out on your days to complete your task … and you could be held at reception.
When you head to basic training same thing … you can go to sick call but if you miss too many trainings you could be recycled.
My suggestion is to bring a few otc pills with you in your bag. Remember I said all of the stuff you need for reception put it in this bag ? Place those pills in there. They don’t check your bag in reception like they do in basic . Another option is to have your doctor prescribe you Tylenol. Because you are allowed to have some meds “like birth control “ … and the med from sick call in your locker as long as it’s prescribed to you .
Thank you so much for your video very informative. I do have a question when packing can we bring birth control because I have a really bad period that is why I use them?
This video was super informative since I am going to Fort Sill soon. In your shower bag are these items you brought from home or from the PX once there?
Hi! I leave on monday for basic at fort leanord wood, and was using your video as a guide to packing. Wouldn’t they just lock all of this stuff up? for example the I will be in there in the winter months too and i wanted to get the booties but would i even be allowed to have them?
That depends on your drills. Somethings we had to put away Initially and then they let us get them. I would put the booties with my socks and don’t broadcast that you have them .
And when you wear them , put them under your uniform socks ( because you have to match everyone else ) you will be fine ! All the best to you on your journey 🥰
Thanks you, this was very helpful. I am leaving April 29th 2024 to Fort Sill ❤.
This might sound like a silly question but I have acne and use prescribed acne cream to keep it under control. Would they let me bring acne cream and would I have time to wash it off in the morning?
They probably would let you bring it , make sure you mentioned it at meps .
Now having time to wash it off in the morning is another thing lol … you have hit times so you would need to wake up EARLIER than the others in the bay.
Thank you so much for your video it is really helpful I have a question can I wear my wedding ring during training or what do you recommend/required?
Yes you can ( I did ) ! , I would get the silicone one from Walmart that way if you loose it it’s ok.
I know some people place them around their neck ( on a chain ) I wouldn’t recommend that because you will be running, climbing, crawling…
All the best to you on your journey 🥰
Could you comment the “degrading” things they woild say? Our personality are similar i am quite bubbly as well. But i need this to workout far me. I have nothing to fall back on. Now i am nervous..lol
I have a few videos that give you a picture of my experience there, I'd suggest you go and watch them.
if this is something that you have to do, then do it! & Don't be nervous focus on your end goal You got this.
Hi 👋 did you go to bct with the unlabeled bottles already filled up or did you fill them inside bct? (Just wondering if they’re strict about having unlabeled bottles)

Can you bring hair pins for basic training ?
Yes make sure they match your hair color ( so not white or blonde pins if you don’t have that color hair )
Would you be able to let me know what power bank that is ?? I leave soon 😢
The exact one is linked in the amazon store . I wish you the best on your journey 🤗
Does it matter about the color of the undergarments?
I would keep it
Black ,white , grey, and army green. Otherwise it might go in the trash 🥴. And make sure they are full sized ( no cutesy ones).
Thank you because my packing list didn’t specify that thank you 🙏 😅
Can I bring vitamins
They would have to be prescription and MEPs would have to approve them.
They will issue vitamins to everyone one you get to reception
You didn’t link the socks

In the Amazon store under basic training
They wouldn’t make you get rid of all that stuff during reception? Just curious because I’ll be in fort sill in May
Thank you so much for your video very informative. I do have a question when packing can we bring birth control because I have a really bad period that is why I use them?
