Use lube
use lube or you'll have a red tail light
get a red headlight
Every time the drill sergeants yell at you, shit your pants. They will eventually stop and leave you alone because they'll get sick of the smell.
Get fit. All the yelling is to toughen you up in case you get captured and the enemy wants to play Russian Roulette with your head. Dont be a whiney bitch you volunteer for this. Have a great time and try to learn as much shit as your pea brain can fit, dont think about sex or try to compete fuck or talk back to women. Ask to be placed in the worst bases on earth and do 12 years or a full career
>Don't think about sex or try to compete fuck or talk back to women
What kind of gay advice is this? I mean don't try to fuck anyone at basic, but you didn't sign up to be a fucking monk. One of the only good things about the military is being very fit and using the uniform to get pussy.
>One of the only good things about the military is being very fit
Very fit compared to an average American, I guess.
the red crayons taste the best
Grab your drill sergeant by the gooch
Pretend you’re a werewolf
Shit yourself
In no particular order
>(No I will not engage in homosexual activities)
Depends which country you're in for whether this is an option or not.
If you ever need to jerk off you just have to ask the DI “may I release pressure”, they’re required per regs to give you alone time for you to see to your needs
Use a condom when fucking the platoon bottom.
1) Never volunteer for anything
2) Try to blend in as much as possible. You don't want to be "The Seen One"
3) Don't tell too much private stuff
4) Don't become an outsider within your unit, try to blend in
5) Always remember: Instructors are there to weed out the weak so don't fall for their tricks
6) During every meal, try to eat as much as possible
7) Acquire military grade tape and tape your feet where blisters might occure
8) Even if something sounds illogical or dumb, just do it because you might wanna go by the book
9) Don't be the Gung-Ho dude who acts like he's Delta just because he's good at basic
tl;dr blend in, take nothing personal and play by the rules
This. A word of warning regarding blending in, definitely don’t try to be aloof because they will eventually pick up on that. You need to be actively blending on. This kind of goes back to the point of not being an outsider. Be as nice to your knees as possible.
10) Even if the shit is issued and probably worn, just take good care of it. The day might come where you gotta rely on it during basic.
11) NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!! let the petty criminals drag you into some shit, seriously
12) Don't get schemed into buying expensive shit like cars, especially not at a dealership in a 100 mile radius around your base
13) Please, don't fall in love with a local stripper and obviously don't get married to her.
14) Alyways keep individually wrapped baby wipes with you, especially in situations where you must drop a deuce in the great outdoors. They also come handy for thousands of other reasons
15) Don't get into gambling. You'll never make money in the long run
16) If possible, try to send your money to your parents or other people you really really trust. This greatly reduces the urge to spend your few bucks on shit you don't need.
17) Don't be ashamed to ask for military discounts, especially in big stores.
18) Even if you know lots of stuff about guns and shooting, dont be a smart-ass. And still listen to what your instructors tell you about shooting, even if it goes against what you've learned - there's several ways to hit a target, not just the one you know.
19) Try to learn the phonetic alphabet and military systems of units as fast as possible. Pro-tip: When hacking in the captcha here, you can use it to train the phonetic alphabet
20) Never! Trust! Any! E4! Period! But also don't piss them off. They can make your life suffering
>13) Please, don't fall in love with a local stripper and obviously don't get married to her.
my friend from college is currently doing this
can you elaborate on the E4s?
Just google E4 mafia. You'll get tons of info.
Basically E4s are in long enough to know stuff and they are the ones who run the show considering lower enlisted ranks.
Noncoms might be the ones who can make an enlisted man's life suffering - on paper. In reality its E4s
>7) Acquire military grade tape and tape your feet where blisters might occure
Or just use a second layer of socks or blister patches instead of tape because this can go quickly wrong. I also used feet Creme which you apply a day before and its stick to your feet as protection. Name is Hirschtalg, couldnt find the english name or version for that. And do sport in your own free time helps you a lot, a lot of people do shit in their free time when they join.

That's what you think.
Hope you get hit by an anti-tank weapon while in a Humvee in Iraq.
Can't wait to see your princess ass featured in a video with nasheed music. Rest in piss GI
>anon is stuck in 2007 and still thinks it's the surge
You're more likely to die in some looney tunes accident with equipment than get killed by a massive margin
>I will not engage in homosexual activities
You say that now.
Yeah don’t show up lol being in the military is gay
