What last-minute advice do you have for someone headed to 12B OSUT?

Leaving for MEPS Monday, shipping out Tuesday. I’ve been to MEPS about 10 times, but I’m just as nervous this time as I was when I did my full medical. Never been on a plane so a little nervous about that. Any advice or info about OSUT/reception battalion or anything else before I leave would be appreciated.

You'll be fine. It's not as hard as they make it out to be. Do what your told, everyone gets yelled at. Be on time. The nail that sticks out gets hammered! Don't give up, there might be times you want to just lose your shit... don't! Like everyone says embrace the suck because sometimes it just will
