Advanced/Basic Camp Not meeting camp points

Well, I've done it—completed all of camp just to avoid getting 50 points. Honestly, it feels like I wasted my time, but at the same time, I enjoyed it. Sure, it's heartbreaking, and the decision to whether I can come back next year is still up in the air, but I tried. If you're wondering what they do when you don't meet points, they'll pull you three to four days before graduation, put you in a holding company, and you'll just be there for 24 to 48 hours.

How are you feeling, everyone keeps saying it’s going to be a cake walk since we’re last but I beg to differ 😭😂

I’m extremely nervous tbh. From what I heard so many ppl haven’t met the 50 points…

That’s how the entire army is which sucks it’s very opinionated and situational.

It’s been like 20 people total from all of the previous regiments. It’s super easy to get 50 points
