Packing List
The packing list explains all items that Cadet Candidates must bring with them when reporting on R-Day. Space is limited so do not bring any additional items other than what is on the packing list.
Personal Items
Cadet Candidates are not allowed to have stereos, radios, or other electronic music or listening devices in their rooms during CCBT, so do not bring them with you. Cadet Candidate
Footwear
Candidates should wear one pair of good quality running shoes and carry one pair of basketball or court type shoes when reporting to Fort Monmouth. The running shoes should be designed specifically for running with maximum shock absorption and a balance of motion control and cushioning characteristics. These shoes should not be of the “cross training” variety. They should have a sturdy heel counter, elevated heel and a cushioned mid-sole. It is imperative that these shoes are comfortable and “broken in” because you will be running three to five times per week up to five miles at a time. You will also take a physical fitness test during the first weeks of training.
You must bring one pair of comfortable, well fitting, inexpensive, black or brown leather laced shoes with plain toe and rubber heel. New shoes need not be purchased. Candidates should bring or wear any orthotics currently used. You should also report with special athletic footwear and equipment required for participating in baseball, golf, soccer, wrestling, lacrosse, cross country, orienteering, and rugby.
Computers
Cadet Candidates will be issued laptop computers at the end of CCBT in August. It is not authorized for a Cadet Candidate to substitute a computer he/she already owns for the issued computer. Laptop computers are the property of the USMAPS, not the Cadet Candidate. Baggage Bring one large and one medium bag (each tagged with your full name). Duffel bags are acceptable. Cadet Candidates are not authorized to ship baggage, household goods, or furniture to USMAPS. You must be able to carry everything you are required to bring. You will be issued a USMAPS footlocker to use while you are a Cadet Candidate to store personal items.
