I need to know what I will be able to take. The time for me to go is getting closer and closer by the minute. I would just like to know if I will be able to take my phone, pillow, you know. Basic stuff. Or, all of that will be provided.

Don't bring anything with you to boot camp except your important papers (such as driver's license, social security card, and banking information), and the clothes on your back. NO MONEY. The clothes you wear will end up in storage while you train. You recruiter should be able to tell you all of this. Talk to them, they are there to help and will hold you hand right up until they day you leave.

Thomas OReilly The links below list the items that you can take to Marine Corps Boot Camp. I have stood in the Yellow Footprints that you will be standing on. I was in Platoon 1028, MCRD San Diego, June 20, 1968.

Boot Camp will be a culture shock. Arrive with a good attitude. Listen closely and be observant. Be squared away at all times, and never quit. Help your fellow recruits when you can. Let me know if you have questions that I can help you with. Enjoy new challenges and adventures.

You should take your honor, character to choose the hard right over the easy wrong, and a never quit attitude!
