I'm supposed to be going to MEPS in Montgomery,AL. and really wondering what to expect besides to "hurry-up and wait" that I've heard so much about. It's only about 2 hours or less away from where I live. Basically, how long will it take and I already have a good idea on what to bring with. The physical aspect of it is self explanitory, but feel there is somethings that I'm overlooking.

If you're just going there for your exams and stuff for enlistment, then just bring a change of clothes and toiletries. And a fresh pair of underwear Roll Eyes. There's not much to it. Just do as your told. Everything in Initial Entry is supposedly 8th grade level, so it's nothing you can't float through.

If you are going to Montgomery then most of the day is going to be pretty boring. But they have a nice lounge area with a tv and magazines and a pool table. The hotel isn't to bad but the area it is in is pretty rough. You probably wouldn't want to go outside after dark. And don't drink at the bar in hotel; I was stupid and did and got in trouble and the whole next day I was that guy. Big Grin But don't sweat the small stuff to much and keep us updated

if you get there before MEPS opens, try to be the first waiting at the army liason's office, and then the first one in line to get your name badge at the control desk, which means you "should" then be the first one back in line to the army liason's office, which means you "should" be the first one sent to take your psysical, and should be first to process, etc.

bring something to read, to help the wait portion of the "hurry up and wait"
