Grad and Go: this is from RTC's Facebook Page
FYI: The term "Grad & Go" only refers to those recruits who graduate and depart RTC on the SAME day. They grad, and they go. The only recruits who depart RTC on the same day as graduation are those who will stay in Great Lakes for A School and check into their school across the street on the main base. Recruits that are departing on Saturday are just referred to as Saturday departures.

I just got back home from RTC and maybe this will help. My son was considered "grad & go" as well. We got to spend Friday afternoon with him, then he had to get back to base for an 20:00 watch. He was then bussed to the airport at 02:00. Trouble is, his flight wasn't scheduled to leave until 19:00 on Saturday. Our plan was to spend most of the day with him at the airport. We were surprised when he suggested that we take the train into Chicago as long as we got him back in plenty of time to catch his flight. We did this and had a blast. Walked much of downtown and the shore to the Navy Pier. Ate meals and had coffee and hot cocoa. (It was cold on Saturday).
I think because RTC transported him to the airport that night, right after PIR, this is considered "grad and go", not just Saturday departure. Anyway, if you have this kind of opportunity, take advantage of it. And take your son/daughter's cell phone and laptop to them. They should be able to have it with them when they depart for "A-school". Hope this is helpful.

Our son also is Grad&Go on the 6th May 2011. He infor us he depart at 0:300 am . So your daughter will know when she depart for A school.
