Boot camp is just as much a mental challenge as it is physical. The DIs will mess with you and punish you for things that may not make sense. Just remember that their 'punishment' is really just making you stronger. Also, don't be afraid to go to sick call if you have to. You WILL get sick, even with all the penicillin they will pump into you. A few recruits in my platoon refused to go to sick call, developed pneumonia, and had to be dropped to a later platoon (meaning they stayed in bootcamp an extra couple weeks). Don't try to go for every little cough (obviously) but if you think it could be serious, go, no matter how much your DIs chastise you for it. What MOS are you going in to out of curiosity?
