@Reaper: message received.

@turboprop: Thanks a bunch. I did look at the Bragg site before, and was a little frustrated by the haphazard layout. I had found the packing list, but the PowerPoint is much more thorough. In particular, the pictures explain a lot more than the text does.

For my fellow wannabes wondering the same thing, it appears that all the boot models pictured use the traditional-style sole, i.e. can be resoled by a cobbler (with the exception of the Bates boots, which have been blessed for reasons I can't comprehend). It looks like my TRXs are out, so I'll be boot shopping, since I won't be able to take advantage of CIF until it's too late to break them in properly. If any QPs in the know care to elaborate on or correct my interpretation of the PowerPoint (http://www.bragg.army.mil/SORB/text/...April%2009.ppt), especially since changes may have been made in the year since it was published, I would certainly welcome it.
