What they said. Basic is a time for learning to be part of a team. You have to do two things... follow orders and do your best. Do that in basic and afterwards and you will do well. USNR

Go with the flow and keep your mouth shut, don't volunteer for anything, especially the bowling team (which will turn out to be the toilet bowl team). Don't be in the first or the last of the pack, stay comfortably in the middle, be a nobody.
