I have a few questions about the packing list, as this summer I'll be attending DCC/BOLC in Fort Still/SA
1. Is it advised to get 2 pairs of combat boots? (It says to do so but someone said you can get away with just one)
2. Is it better to get an ASU from Marlowe & White or try and assemble one at the exchange? The employee lady at the exchange said one component from it was currently being phased out and I would have to match it as closely as possible. But on the other hand I believe M&W will end up costing more $$
3. We are supposed to get 2 Unit patches but I haven't received my unit info yet. Should I wait until I get there for this part?
Also I wear contacts, but they show as contraband for field exercises. Does this mean I must wear glasses for that portion? I have read from others who wore contacts and gotten away so wondering how strict that requirement is
Thanks
