That's one of the many things why are tougher then men. I heard from our ladies that the humidity killed them and made hell especially during the summer months on the Island. The only time they got to really do their hair was graduation week b/c your a Marine now and equals so they the DI brought all the good hair and makeup. For us guys we didn't but damn if they wouldn't burn us after the pics of we didn't look. Uniform inspections and photos were the 2 things I remember like really helping us the entire time until the end. I always tell everyone when going to boot camp don't pack a suit case or personal. When you get there they put it box that's for the 13 weeks and then hand back at the end. The funniest time which they should live feed is check in. They threw things everywhere yelled and cussed. I took the clothes on my back disposable hygiene for the night before MEPS and my orders.... that's it. Anyway that was January 2000 and if I could back and do the entire thing again I would. Training was awesome and it boot camp is just like marriage, they told what do just like my wife did. I have never been in charge of anything and I was never happier. Thanks and have a good one!!
