During BMQ, you will do 4 ruckmarches (3km, 6.5km, 9.75km and a 13km followed by a 25m casualty drag). For the infamous 13km march, I'd highly suggest using good quality foot powder and mole skin...especially in the summer. We prepared our feet the night before because that following morning we were rucking back to base. Talk to eachother during the march to keep your mind off the pain, motivate eachother...it helps.
As for your rucksack, make sure all the strings on the back of the ruck are secure, I recommend getting an instructor to tell you the proper way to do it. There are not chest straps but there will be a waist strap, tighten it just above your waist, more comfortable believe it or not.
