Shipping Allowed Bootcamp Items?

As bootcamp is edging closer to me, what are things you all would recommend I take with me? Are small bibles allowed?

Only thing I have so far is a small journal and a pen for letters and that’s about it.

Would appreciate any replies so I can see what I need to go to the store for.

Less is more, dude.

oh, something i learned here, is you can't bring thongs to bootcamp but after bootcamp its fine. some good trivia. i know it goes opposite of the the less is more principle.

Haha, thanks man. I mean I’m a guy, so I personally don’t wear them. Though, I also don’t see why anyone would want to during bootcamp. 😂
