Thinking about what type of bags do people put their items and bring on the 1st day of enlistment. Normal backpack, duffle bag, etc ?
up to you, u can even bring plastic bag.
You will be asked to bring home some of your civilian items on their first book out.
After 2 weeks, your field pack will be full of laundry. So bring a proper bag for those other items.
Field pack only for subsequent book in and book out.
