I am going to be real with you. Basic training is meant to be hard. It is time to man up.
Yes, you are going to miss your family.
Yes, company commanders are going to yell at you.
Yes, you will get almost NO sleep.
Yes, your physical and mental person is going to be tested.
And Yes, during graduation you will look back and say "that crap wasn't hard, it was all in my damn mind!"

If you were going in to the Marines I could understand you, but it's the coast guard. Any body can do the coast guard boot camp. My daughter is the most prissy spoiled woman that I know and she graduated from the Army bootcamp as an E2. You can do it.

Relax, Basic will be the one of the easiest things you will do in the Military...they tell you where to be and make sure you are there...they wake you up in the morning and put you to bed at night when you need to sleep...the real challenge comes when you have to insure that you are where you are suppose to be and what time on your own...just remember it is the Drills job to turn you into a Military person, it's nothing personal...I was in the Army for 13 years and besides the first NCO school...Basic was the easiest thing I did...many of my friends were and are Drills and they are for the most part cool, normal people...have fun...to me Basic was fun...the hard part is being away from home for the first time, but you are kept busy and you do not have much time to thing about it...
