What should my son wear to SLE for first day. Also will this be like their first summer where they will get yelled out?
 
Some khakis, a shirt, and some tennis shoes because they will be running everywhere. Yes it will be the first time because it’s the cadres Job to give the new cadets a taste of Rday.
 
Here is the link to a wonderful blog about SLE...I have to break it up becuase we cannot post links...so just pull it back together...

Don’t sweat this. Wear something simple, casual, comfortable. Should be neat, not sloppy. With comfortable shoes. When DD arrived, she wore khakis and a polo shirt and sneakers. Fit right in.

More importantly, pack light. She had a soft bag that she could easily shoulder. When she and several others were speed-marched from the check-in table to the barracks, I felt badly for the guy hauling the huge suitcase and the girl toting the massive duffel.
 
Khakis and a shirt worked fine for week one here. Saw one guy with a suit and dress shoes on the bus... he must have been VERY sad when we ran off the bus to stand/run around in the rain for the next 4 hours.
