#9 - BCT journals

When I go to basic, I plan on keeping a journal and posting it here afterwards as a blog (probably not until I'm back from AIT). I will take down some thoughts in a notebook, but much of it will be based upon letters I send home to my husband.

This isn't an original idea; there are a number of basic training journals on the web. Of course some things are universal, but every experience is unique. I haven't seen any BCT journals written from the perspective of an older female, so I may have something to add to the existing body of literature. Here are a few to browse through if you'd like to get a flavor for the BCT experience:
