Zoom sounds great! Also if anyone else is in the New England area I would be down to meet up somewhere. Im in Massachusetts, about 30 min north of OCSWhat do you guys think about an early summer meet-up or something??
Some people brought KT tape, but honestly if you need it, you can get it from SMART. The tape on your uniforms will be masking tape and is really only applicable before JOC phase. If you need something like that, it will be provided. If it isn't, that is on your candios and they will take the fall.No problem, the athletic tape was put on there (I'm assuming for name on tape). My buddy just graduated and said don't bring it if it's for that purpose cause they give you tape to put your name on things. Ninja star is on that list, it's that Dritz 3100 14 in 1 Measuring Gauge. Blanket and pillow I'll add (sleeping on top of your rack) duffels are a good idea as well. He will be staying with me Wednesday on his drive back to Supply School so I'll get more info then as far as a packing list
Don't bring athletic tape. Do bring a ninja star. Don't bring more luggage than you need to move issued gear - you can buy garment bags and additional sea bags that will do the job better. Do bring a spare blanket. Don't bring your own pillow - you are real estate challenged.Goldleaf - thanks for putting that list together.
Thought I’d throw some things out that I’d read other people suggesting to bring.
-roll of athletic tape (not sure why)
-ninja star (something to do with uniforms)
-suitcase plus a few duffel bags for all the gear we will be issued
-spare blanket (I get cold)
-own pillow if you’d like
Would a sleeping bag work rather than a blanket?Don't bring athletic tape. Do bring a ninja star.

If it has a compression sack, that's a huge plus for saving space.Would a sleeping bag work rather than a blanket?
Perfect, that was the hopeIf it has a compression sack, that's a huge plus for saving space.
I'm okay with that let's put it out a little over a week at minimum giving people time to put it on the calendars etc. Also I use google calendars so if anyone wants to be invited to the event via google calendar I can set that up.Anyone opposed to Thursdays, around 5?
No doubt.I'm okay with that let's put it out a little over a week at minimum giving people time to put it on the calendars etc. Also I use google calendars so if anyone wants to be invited to the event via google calendar I can set that up.
