what items can you bring in the navy bootcamp?

Question

can you bring soaps, shampoos, razor blade, and shave gel

Answer 1

They didn't let us take anything with us when I went in 1971.

Answer 2

Serious bring only the clothes on your back. Everything else is going to get shipped home. So do not bring anything valuable with you. Once you go through processing, the clothes on your back are going to be put into a bag and everything else is going to be shipped home and pray that it makes it there because my stuff never made it home from boot camp. As far as soap and toiletries, you will be buying that stuff at the Navy Exchange on base. They will give you an allowance (A smart card) to purchase those items.

Got this from my Navy DEP booklet. Although I've heard that a lot of these items are sent home eventhough they are on the list of retainables.

Thank you for serving.
