Yup. Swore in today with 3 other fellows headed to DEPOT in April. We heard from our recruiter that late last week, there were 120 names for the April DEPOT. As of today, it was somewhere in the mid/upper 60’s. Sounds like it’ll be a big group. |

Swore in today. The count I got from my recruiter was in the 30's. Looks like it will be a "normal" sized DEPOT class after all. Also got a little enlistment bonus that wasn't available a few weeks ago, so that worked out nice, haha! |

Congratulations Justin!! Did you do a PT test before you swore in? I was told by my recruiter before I get shipped out I have to send in a video of me swimming and doing pushup/sit ups as well as a screen shot of my running time. Once I pass that then I am clear to ship.. |

Our recruiter wanted to at least see that we were good with our push-ups and sit-ups before signing off. |

I’m in the 22 Apr Depot class as well! My recruiter gave me a rough number of 22 in the class so I guess we’ll all just have to wait and see. There was a guy that was supposed to ship with me but he didn’t pass the mock pt test and decided to go back to the army. |

I swear in Monday and will be part of the April DEPOT class too. Any tips for preparing the last month before Cape May are greatly appreciated! |

Sven, this is a thread from 2018. See if there is a thread for 2019. If not start one! |

I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords. I'd like to remind them that as a trusted Coastie, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves. |
