The first act of full metal jacket was boot camp. Reception is the week that you first get to boot camp when you just get issued all of your gear and shit. Reception week was probably the easiest week of boot camp - you have receiving drill instructors not your training drill instructors that make your life a living hell the rest of your time in boot camp.

I know this because I am a Marine and graduated boot camp at Parris Island two years ago.
