What's the meaning of "in basic"?

I hadn’t given a lot of thought to actually going to war, but it was happening now, and I was still struggling to find a sense of urgency that seemed proportional to the events unfolding in my life. I remember feeling relief in basic while everyone else was frantic with fear.
What's the meaning of "in basic" in the last sentence?
Thanks!
