    I have not and its been some time since i was at basic training.


    That said, expect to be out of your comfort zone at first. A new place, new people, new experience. Just remember everyone else will be feeling the same. After the shock of capture has worn off, you'll feel more comfortable.


    Day to day you'll be on PT, conducting lessons on the foundations of being a soldier. Learning how to use a rifle. Map reading. A bit of Operational Law. First aid and so on.


    You should also do some AT (adventurous training), like hill walking or kayaking, climbing.. and maybe an over seas trip.
