the hardest part of camp is dealing with the other retard cadets... you'd have to be a complete moron to fail it

bring 2 or 3, it doesnt matter... just keep your wet weather gear and canteens at the top, they told me to take that shit out at the airport and i had to go search for it

It said in the packet that we got (the 145) that most airliners allow one suitcase, and one duffel bag to be checked, plus a carry on. So you don't have to fit everything in one suitcase.

But her "unmentionables" will get all wadded up if she has to pack them in a dang dufflebag!

I mean, what's a woman to do, huh? :D

Good luck, y'all. You bring back from it what you put into it...

Aries
24 June 2005, 11:22

yeah- needs are pretty different. nursing books, steth, civilian stuff for days off (really won't need any heels, make-up, or perfume at LDAC)

I would have appreciated ladies wearing "heels, make-up & prefume" in my version of "camp"!

and I said nothing about stilettos...

You can only check one duffle bag? Crap, I thought that airlines allowed you two of them. Are they relaxed at LDAC about storing additional gear for follow-on training or do they get into your hair about it?

no they just throw all your shit into a conex. the airlines for the most part are a lot more lenient when it comes to people with military orders. I checked two bags on my flight back from ldac, no problem.

Associate, were they the issued duffle bags? Would that be ok?

yeah, regular military olive drab duffel bags. However, if all you have is civilian gear, I still dont believe the airlines will hassle you, just show them your orders. this really isnt anything to fret over.
