Yes they are bought in the first PX you see when you get off the bus after collecting you advance money and gettign your "need" list for basic. In Ft. Benning they had a "special" PX for recruits which only carried basic stuff such as shoe polish, sneakers, atheltic socks, envelopes, etc etc. Many of us were unaware that you can get anything else plus it would be of no use anyway since we had to be uniform and have the same equipment.
