Hi everyone my son is in 3-1 of bootcamp. When he gets to SC are we able to get in touch with him more? Does he get more time off so that we may be able to see him. Thanks

I was able to give my son his cell phone at Ohare. I was able to spend extra time visiting with my son at the USO while at Ohare. 

Technically they have left the command of the basic training once they are dropped off at Ohare.

Your sailor can go thru the steps to get you checked thru security so you can spend some extra time with them at the gate.have them get details at USO.

They have to be careful and not take any kind of recording device into Nimitz study area once at Goose Creek, that also means cameras on cell phones.

Ok thanks! That sounds good.

Unless rules have changed, yes. Some families give their Sailor their cell phone and laptop at O'Hare prior to flying to SC. See Nuke School at Goose Creek for additional information.

Yes but you have to hold it until you meet them at the airport. My daughter PIR in October and is a little more then 1/2 way through it.

My son is going to the A school after boot camp and I was wondering if they are allowed to have their cell phone and computer there, what restrictions do they have, etc.

I appreciate all the input I can get.

Thanks

FWIW Foster Creek Villas is a popular place to stay for visiting Nuke families.

Got the invitation in the mail yesterday.  0900 08MAR13.  Ominous warning.  Just curious, what happens to the sailors that don't make it through power school?

We normally stayed at the Air Force Base Inn but they were booked up for the time we were there. So we stayed at the Quality Inn on Red Bank Rd. Good price, close to the base.

Comment by Mike K on February 11, 2013 at 4:13pm

There are two Quality Inns that we have stayed at that are both nice.  One is on Red Bank Rd a couple miles from the base, and the other is off the Interstate in North Charleston.
