Boot Camp Training

Picture
Marine Corps boot camp is the closest thing there is to hard labor prison on the planet without actually being shot at with live ammo. There are some things that could be of great value before entering those hallowed walls of Marines boot camp. Things that just might make the difference between getting hurt or getting set back or getting through it.

Things You'll Need:
  • Bag
  • Shoes
  • Shampoo and Soap
  • Food
  • Just kidding........  
  • The only thing you will take with you is your naked body because you will send everything else you have back home when you arrive.


How can you survive the basic training?

People say that Boot Camp is like being in prison, but have you ever thought about how many locations there are for this locations. Well, in reality there's only two locations that can turn men into Marines, one being in Parris Island, South Carolina and the one at San Diego, California. This places are known as the Recruit Training Depots. Where you go depends largely on where you enlist. Those who enlist west of the Mississippi will likely go through boot camp in San Diego, while those in the East will attend in Parris Island, and there is only one boot camp to turn women into Marines - Parris Island.
