I head to boot camp soon, and I assume my recruiter will give me the list of things I can and cannot take to boot camp with me.**I also assume there will be requred items.**Could someone PRE-inform me of the can and can'ts of stuff to take to boot camp?**And while we're at it, some do's and don'ts and things to remember while at boot camp?thank you

(Check with your recruiter on this one though, my memory is foggy on this one.Make-up.**It will depend on your senior drill instructor on whether or not you wear makeup before like third stage of boot;**but you WILL eventually wear makeup.**You will have a class on basic makeup techniques.Address book, so you remember all those addresses of all those people you want to write to.Well, right now I can't remember anything else.**Good luck.
