What sort of things can I keep at basic? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-sort-of-things-can-i-keep-at-basic <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Can i bring like a plain black makeup bag for my toiletries? like toothbrush, deodorant, etc to keep it all in one place?<br />Also if i bring like 2 brushes are they gonna let me keep them or make me buy new ones? Like as in, the stuff I bring that is allowed (brush, toothpaste, deodorant, etc) I can keep until I run out? Not tryna waste money.<br />and what about baby wipes? or should I have that sent to me?<br /><br />I&#39;m sure these are common knowledge but I have no idea.<br /><br />Also, on a different note, how do I pack for ait? Should I pack a separate bag and leave it in my room and have it shipped to me when I get to ait?

It will list EXACTLY what you are to bring and if you FAIL to bring that then upon your first trip to the PX you will buy said items out of your first allotment of pay. Except where noted such a list is 1 (one) each and any extras will be stowed with your personal effects which you will not have access to until graduation or move onto the AIT portion of training. <br /><br />Baby wipes may be on the list that is allowed. Check with your recruiter. They are most likely considered a toiletry/personal care item and allowed. I know we had them back in the day for rucking and field problem, along with baby powder. <br /><br />Assuming you are OSUT, one stop unit training, then your personal effects that were stripped of you in basic will be returned upon going from basic phase to AIT phase. Once you hit AIT then you will have SOME extra liberties and freedoms such as free time to go off post etc. SSG Brian G.

Anything specifically forbidden they&#39;ll throw away or lock in your personal bag, in a secure room.<br />Depending on your length of AIT it&#39;ll either be the same as Basic or they&#39;ll relax the rules. Your best bet is to follow the packing list and pack light. They&#39;ll give you everything you need. 2LT Private RallyPoint Member Thu, 02 May 2019 21:30:37 -0400 2019-05-02T21:30:37-04:00 Response by SGT Private RallyPoint Member made May 3 at 2019 9:02 AM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-sort-of-things-can-i-keep-at-basic?n=4600651&urlhash=4600651 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I went to basic in July 2018. Honestly, they are going to make you get hygiene bags when you are in reception. Stuff like toothbrush and toothpaste they dont have a problem with. If its wipes and deodorant, they have to be unscented. Idk how your ait in Georgia going to be because I went to fort lee.

Make sure you don&#39;t bring any aerosol products or cleaning stuff in a different container like lotion poured into a little bottle.
