[LeeAnn]

I am starting IAP July 2007, I am very nervous about going. I am working out and trying to stay positve. Looking for some advice on what to expect, how tough it is really going to be and can someone without a lot of military knowledge get through ok?  Thanks! ???

1.  Do what you are told when you are told.
2. Keep your mouth shut unless told to speak.
3. Smile.
4.  Repeat 2.
5. Help others.
6. Repeat 2.

Thanks for the advice, so far that is what I have been told by a lot of my military friends also.

I have a question about #3...

What about people who smile all the time even when unhappy or embarrassed are they in trouble? Smiling while getting yelled at mustn't be well perceived by instructors, isn't it?

I am sure that someone with any intelligence can figure out when the appropriate time to smile is and isn't.
