Seems a lot more casual than our trip to basic in 1966. No one even yelling or swearing at You. We also didn't get to wear sneakers, it was combat boots to run and do PT in.

In basic i got shin splints running in combat boots. After boots broke in good, no problem.

Hollywood, Capt. My oldest son graduated from Sand Hill at Ft Benning. They DIDN'T fit everything, they hollered and screamed. Like it should be.
