Haven't been there since 97 but I'm sure it hasn't changed much. Take lots of bug spray. Watch for poison ivy, half my platoon got it and they were miserable the whole time there. Change of socks you are going to louisiana so pretty sure you might do some water crossings and watch for cotton mouths. Had a Cpl that jumped into a foxhole and found one he got out just as fast as he got in.

Yer not one of the 'boys' anymore, but what they say still have valve - the final decision (and outcome) is owned by you.

Discuss this with your leadership, better yet, have your leadership discuss it with us and they can explain their lackluster performance!!

Bug spray, diaper wipes, 550 cord, Gerber, and a box of grid squares, electric razor, camo for the face.

Don't forget the Red Cockaded Woodpecker repellent and blank adapter for the grenade launcher.
