I was in the army (briefly) in 2000, and started basic training, but did not finish because of medical issues. I remember getting a series of shots the first day, one being penicillin, but I have no ideas what the others were. Does anyone know the group of vaccines they give? I am especially interested if whether a tetanus booster is given (it seems like they would).

And by the way, requesting shot records from the army is probably a difficult task, and everyone got the same thing. I'm hoping some of you remember what you got. Thanks!

In response to Robert's answer... it was for mild asthma, and I have my discharge records, but misplaced the shot records.

I have no idea what they give anymore...sorry.

I am more concerned about the fact that you allowed yourself to get out of the Army on a medical discharge, but don' thave a copy of your medical record (where these shots would be annotated). You NEED to get that record. If you have other complications related to your medical discharge later in life, your medical record will be a tremendous resource in dealing with the Veterans Administration. You should probably have 2 copies of it...one at home and one filed somewhere else, like your county courthouse. Try to get it back, if you can.
