No More "Sailor in a Box" - From RTC- Posted 5 Sept 2019


Attention families and friends of RTC: Previously, upon arrival to boot camp, recruits would box up their civilian belongings and ship it to their choice of destination. Our new procedure now has those boxes being stored locally and will be returned to the recruits the day before graduation. The new procedure went into effect this week beginning with Div. 409 in Training Group 52.

We talk about Holiday Routine at Boot Camp - here's the skinny

Sunday/Holiday Routine allows recruits to attend religious services and observe Federal holidays. From 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. recruits are able to: attend religious services, read and study, hygiene, perform uniform upkeep, write and read letters, or clean their rack and personal locker.

Important RTC/PIR Changes

RTC is making important changes to polices regarding PIR Guest Access as well as Bag Checks and Restriction Policies. Take the time to read thru these and be prepared when you head to Great Lakes for PIR.

Hey guys! I just want to thank everyone for all the help they have given. There have been way too many posts in this group lately for me to keep up with. I will be moving on to the Pensacola IT group. My son is doing great and just waiting to class up. I am not leaving the group, but just won't be "following" it, so I don't get all the email. I will check back now and again in here to see if I can help anyone out with some answers. Thanks again and good luck to all your sailors!!
