Hi guys, newbie to the forum here. I am a former Recruiter though (Air Force). I noticed you were worried about pay issues. Let me say that with the advent of direct deposit it has become super easy for you to get pay set up. It usually took my troops about two pay cycles (a month-ish) to get paid....

Don't worry, you won't see a paycheck while at Basic or AIT if you go to them back to back. You'll recieve all of the pay you are authorized at the end of the cycle. Gosh, I hope you're wrong about that. My recruiter told me that I will be receiving pay on the 1st and the 15th the moment I show up ...

Just talked to my recruiter today. He said no go on the electric razor. I've got a bag of the gold and white single bladed disposables, I'll start practicing with those when I start getting myself used to waking up at 0430 the two weeks preceding my leaving for Basic.

So, I recently joined the Army and will be leaving in mid-March to go to Basic Training. I have been wet shaving for about three years now and I cannot even fathom going back to disposables and canned goop. Has anyone gone through this before and have any suggestions? Should I bring my safety razor,...

I've been doing a GFT Lime Skin Food before each pass, then one splash at the end, I get dressed, fix my hair, then I throw on a balm (right now I'm using the Floris of London samples I have, but soon it'll be Nivea balm).

I like doing it that way.
