We had someone's grandma send some cookies once, and our DS's ate every single one of them in front of us. They did however send a thank you note to said grandma for the delicious cookies
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 damnnnn hilarious
One guy in my platoon had 2, 5lbs chocolate bars sent to him a week before graduation... our ds made us dance like Oompa Loompas..... he was Willy Wonka
😂😂😂 sooooo humiliating but hilarious and genius
Ship out on Tuesday June 30th, fort Leonard wood, Missouri
Because of covid you’re in quarantine so your training is an extra 2 weeks I just avoided it good luck
Good luck, I ship FLW July 27th
If things go as planned ill probably be a few months behind you.
I ship at the same time as u
Been there done that. Have fun and be glad you didn’t enlist 30 years ago! ☺️
Hello Matt! This was an awesome video that I will use for my brother!! He’s going to Fort Benning Georgia and this was very helpful.
Glad it helped!
Heading to the same place July 7th!
Airborne.
Same at evil troop Calvary
Same for my husband
Thanks for making this video. Just what I needed to know what to include in my son's care package. Many blessings to you.😉
I can bless you 😳
Happy Sunday Matt!
You are such a huge help
this is such a gr8 video... the information is clear &spot on &iWish i would have seen it 5 months ago! i made some errors is all i'm going to say... stamps were always a winning item! thank you for your service & i'm looking to see if you have a similar video for AIT!
fleshlights, candy and fox river socks.
Little hamsters and lizards
Bless you, start sending random care packages.
I'm not going to lie i got this idea from someone else. dudes mom and girlfriend literally sent a glitter bomb with a pretty nice fleshlight, not the cheap crap, 5lb of candy and some tactical crap we weren't supposed to have. pretty funny, they knew what they were doing though thay wrote a note to the drill Sargents.
Genius.
Thank you I needed this rn cuz my bf at bct at geaorgia 🥺this was helpful ‼️
Thank you so much. My son leaves in 8 days to Fort Jackson and this was so helpful Again, Thank you!
Thank you for this video
I love your videos bro
Thank you!!
In reception rn, sucks because we won’t have family day and will go straight to ait🤦♂️
Well, did you have family day?
How ya doing man. Keep it up 💯💪🏽
Will do!
Shipping out at oh my god in the morning on the 30th for Lost in the Woods. Thanks Matt you’re awesome!
Drink water. Going to be hot and miserable. Ft Leonard Wood, Misery, class of August-October 1991.
Husbands there now. He says its going fine but he did cry during the quick phonecall we got last Friday.
Thanks matt 👍
Thank you for making all of these videos brother. I'm shipping for BCT tomorrow, wish me luck and hope the community and Matt keep up the good friendliness!
Thanks and good luck!
Make sure to emphasize to your loved ones to not have them send you any chow or too much mail. Otherwise you will have a great time with the DI(s).
Someone else is going to the same place hope you are friends later on
I’m at meps right now getting ready to ship out 11x fort Benning Georgia 😎
I just graduated from fort Benning from Charlie Company 2nd battalion 58th Infantrymen Regiment with 4th platoon savages 3 days ago mad love
Surprised there are GI’s asking for Gun cleaning supplies. I watched a recruit get smoked for having dirty kit! Wait tho... our kits fit in the butt stock as my issue Rifle was A1 then A2. True story on recruits getting too much mail. They got smoked for that too. MEPS gave a short list of things to bring to boot, as long as that was followed you would be good to go. We were issued a 100 bucks to get running shoes, chapstick etc and other toiletries at AAFES prior to hell week. It was week 3 until we seen the PX again. Back then my BII was my Swiss pocket knife, chapstick, pen, note pad, and shaving stuff. A watch is a must. They sell cool bands to keep them safe while in training. Great video! Surprised to see so much stuff on care package wish list!
Shipping to FT Benning Georgia on July 7th as a 11b!
Ship out to Fort Jackson June 30th Tuesday for 25 Bravo. Thank you for videos. They are a massive help!
Ship out July 14th Fort Jackson for 25B! AIT is going to be fun lol
@@gavinroberti9859 Almost at reception good luck on yours
Jace B Tell me how reception is if you have a chance! I’m very curious. Thank you
@@gavinroberti9859 Reception isn't enjoyable because you're waiting all day and you get anywhere between 3-6hrs of sleep every night. You get your ACUs either the 2nd or 3rd day. Might get sunburned so bring a bottle of sunscreen
Jace B I appreciate the response, yeah I’m not looking forward to it since I have a 14-20 day hold due to Covid and those vaccines definitely aren’t fun.
I leave tomorrow, and my mom said she started watching your videos. So, hi mom!
Good Luck!
I ship to Fort Leonard Wood on July 13th. Who's going at the same time and wants to be battle buddies?
I’ll be there on the 14th. Hope to see you there.
I leave July 21st for Missouri for lenardwood. Wish me luck
I ship tomorrow on June 29th today practically, to Fort benning wish me luck
He's dead guys
RIP Events IV
Khabib Armageddon 😂
Of, Rest In Peace, brother!

bro just entered basic.. sending him preparation wipes, preparation cream and half eaten donut
Good luck to everyone shipping out. Currently at AIT fort Gordon, was a holdover from fort Jackson for 3 weeks because covid... was the first cycle to deal w the whole covid changes and they took a lot of our training out like combatives And others that deal w contact smh
July 13th Fort Benning here we go boys!
Aye me too
Ritchie2k OSUT I assume?
Annexed yes, 11x
Ritchie2k Damn right bro! Keep in touch @DylDamon on Instagram. Just 7 days dude!
Annexed just gave you a follow
Shipping to Fort Benning, Georgia tomorrow morning! I'm doing an infantry OSUT so I won't be back until early-mid January. Wish me luck, I'll let you all know how basic goes!
How was it???
This is gonna be surprising to most, but toilet paper!
The paper there is like wiping your crack with a bottle cap, coiled side up. We had a guy have his relative send us toilet paper and we were so happy with the biggest sh!tbag in the platoon for one wholesome moment. The response he got from that actually encouraged him to be more of a team player and by the end, he had really come full circle.
So the TP turned him into a better TP, eh? 😂
My son is leaving 2moro
8 May 2022
Fort Jackson
Hi matt please do a video of transfering from another country's military to the U.S military
There is no "transfer" from one country's military to another. If there are citizenship requirements that have to be fulfilled, that has to be completed, either during the enlistment period, or prior to. You basically have to enlist, take all of the battery of tests (US Military are ASVAB) tests, plus all the physical in-processing.
Don’t send or pack anything if your going to Fort Benning they will make you throw it away on arrival. You’ll get free money to buy everything you’ll need starting out
*you’re
June 2nd, Fort LW... nervous af
Shipping out June 30th Fort Benning. 11b
1) Small Bottles of "Monkey Butt Powder". It doesn't burn like Gold Bond. Even cheaper is Unscented Cornstarch Baby powder.
2)Zip Lock or similar baggies of various sizes. Great for keeping Q-Tips dry, non-rain proof writing materials, etc. I always used the gallon size to pack one whole set each of Underwear, T-Shirt, and socks.
3) Space Pen. They write everywhere and can fit in the same baggie they put their notepad in.
Thank you
Yo love your vids want to join the military but I’m to young, also can you do more cod

August 17th fort Leonardwood
Will look out for you
Shipping out July 13th fort Benning, who else
Shipping out soon as a 12D so I'll be sending this video to my mom. Otherwise she'd probably be the one to get my drill sergeant angry with me. But seriously man thanks for all the advice you've given over the years. You're a big inspiration.
A hint to parents sending stuff to (hopefully) future infantrymen and women. Do not send too much. Letters are best.
Unless you want to be a comedian, then your kid and alllllll his friends get a workout if you send something fun.
Interesting just thinking about your channel in relation to extremely important advice you gave in the past in not having things on you wiggling, jiggling, or shaking especially if it has a lot of weight to it when moving around being that it can cause attrition type physical stress injury's over time; thank G-d your OK ...
Ounces equal pounds for the Infantry. All mounted troops squirrel away or become pack rats everything that make their lives a little easier..
I ship out Tuesday June 30th fort Jackson South Carolina
Baby wipes hands down will make you money lol
Shipping out Aug 3rd, Fort Benning GA. 11B
I ship out on July 27, fort benning Georgia, 19d
July 20th Fort Benn
If you spend 10 years in the army and 10 in the navy can you retire with the same pension if you just did 20 in the army
Yes, as long as you have 20 active years. 👍🏻
Thank you for letting us know what we should be shipped. Another video or question I have is moving things like clothes and paper work when we're in our unit. Should I have a storage unit and move it everytime I move to a different station?
The Army actually ships everything except personally owned firearms. And vehicles that are in the Continental US. If, let's say you went to Italy and wanted your car, they would ship it for free but you might be without it for up to 3 months. Firearms aren't allowed to be shipped so if you went overseas you would have to make your own storage arrangements. If you want access to your stuff right away when going to a duty station in the States you can rent a U haul or something similar and then get re-imbursed later. Sometimes reimbursement takes awhile so don't depend on that money for a bill or anything else for that matter.
Hope this is helpful.
@@mr.k.i.s.s7496 Thank you so much for your help :)
Ship out July 20th Fort Sill, Oklahoma🇺🇸
Same time same place see you there
I'll probably see you at some point then lol. I'm shipping to Ft. Sill on July 13th.
Han Nguyen same here 👌
I ship out July 7th fort sill
@@irshadali2677 Nice, Man! What state you shipping out from? I'm shipping out from Cali LAX.
Ship out August 17th airborne infantry at ft benning. definitely sending this to my girlfriend lol
My boyfriend at Fort Benning and asked for socks and tees but I know they have to be a specific color. What's the best place to get some that will be acceptable?
I ship to Leonard Wood next month and I'm really nervous. I hope my family sends me letters :)
My stepson wanted his mom to send cough drops??
I ship 2 weeks after June 12th after graduation
I misread this as CBT. Wound up sending my buddy a ball gag and poppers.
I ship out tomorrow. I'm nervous as hell rn.
Good luck!
Suffer in silence.
The video description says "Have a loved you in basic training?" Lol.
Hey Matt, I know you’ve mentioned before that you’re really hoping to get a deployment before long. Any news on that end yet?
What happens with a soilder that doesnt write home??
Cool t-shirt... Coincidentally we have the same name initials 🤪
Do you have any information on how BCT has changed since COVID-19 has happened. I know that’s a general question but any information would help! I ship to Fort Jackson on July 7. I’m going in as a 25B and I’m super excited!
There might be a video on ARMY RUclips channels
What about shoes? I know my trainee mentioned getting new sneakers for pt.
Hi Matt I have been watching a lot of your videos but i have a very unique question i would like to ask. My husband is going into active duty for the airforce within the next year 1/2 and i am getting into shape to go into reserve army a year or so after him..with me being reserve would i be able to set up my post around my husbands base? And would i be stuck working at my assigned post if my husband had to change bases? Just asking as we would want to share housing if at all possible and we know not all recruiters are honest.
My son is at FLW right now in red phase, when would they need a gun cleaning kit?
White phase so send it now
What Branches of the army (Infantry, Field Artillery, Med Services, JAG, etc.) have the most competitive promotions? When I google this, it says the Army is the fastest promoting branch. I am in Army ROTC as a GRFD and I will be choosing my branch in a few months. I am still trying to figure out which branch to choose and one thing I am considering is how competitive it is to get promoted. I know a big factor is the needs of the Army, but if you know which branches have more competitive promotions, tell us.
Who ships to Fort Leonard Wood on the July 13th or July 14th?
What can we send while they’re in AIT??
I took the ASVAB, I only got a 59 on it, can I still get Infantry...? 😭😭
yea bro 😂😂 you need a 31 to get infantry you scored way passed that
you’re chillin man😂 infantry does not require a high ASVAB score at all
How much space do you get to store your stuff at basic training?
Can we have supplements such as iron pills and or beet powder?
If they’re in BMT in this case USAF so in this case Lackland AFB but I live in San Antonio so 10 min away. Is mail the only way to send anything or is there a station you can drop off? If that makes sense?!
Hey Matt
I have a question. How do you feel about people who are non-military writing Military fiction? assuming they have/are whiling to do the research required and do the best they can to be as authentic as possible.
The guy that wrote Red Badge Of Courage never served in combat, and he did pretty damn well.
Fallen Angels was another.
Hi my name is Elaine , and I just have an concern about sending a photo book to my boyfriend in boot camp . Should I wait until his finished or should I send it to him when he goes to school? After his basic training his supposed to go to pensacola and than he has school in Florida.
Don't try to sneak candy in care packages
If my mos is 11b and I went to airborne school will I no longer be 11b and be airborne for my whole army career
Can you bring this stuff with you when you go to BCT?
I was gonna say, what in the hell would I use a bunch of Q tips for?!? The only thing I've ever used them for is cleaning guns 🤦
How is food & entertainment forbidden?
Are they not gonna give you a gun cleaning kit or moleskin there, also I'm shipping from California to Fort Jackson so its gonna take a while to get there anyway
does this also apply for marine boot camp?
So would I be able to send them a cell phone
Ford this apply to marines?
FLW was the worst basic training during the winter!! I do not recommend 😭
Can you send Vicks ?
Is it worth it to send a package priority to a bct soldier ??
👌🏽
