<p>I'm guessing that swabs get a hacking cough at swab summer like at the other SA's. What do they label it?</p>
<p>Coastie coff...ha ha just kidding I don't know if it has a name but it's out there...my son has it again this summer...always hoarse when you talk to him on the phone and coffs a lot when he wakes up but as the day goes on it's not as bad.</p>
<p>Between jelly fish stings & Cadet cough, where does it end! LOL Check out my new thread in USMMA. Way to go Coasties!! Saved the day yet again!!</p>
<p>Just curious, what causes the cough? Is it the amount of exercise or the enviroment that they are in.</p>

<p>It's a combination of things:</p>
<p>1)Summer allergy season</p>
<p>2)Being rundown from all the PT...resistance down</p>
<p>3)Being in a group with 300 other 18 year olds</p>
<p>4)Lots of yelling and sounding off.</p>
<p>It usually disappears by the end of summer, quite miraculously. Very common at all the academies. :D</p>
