My son arrived at RTC on Nov 24th.  His form letter was post marked Dec 2nd.  I still haven't gotten a regular letter from him but we've talked on the phone twice in addition to the "I'm here" phone call the night he arrived.

I got the "I'm here" phone call (which I missed) and we got his "box", but no contact otherwise, yet. Maybe today...

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed.

My Son arrived at RTC in 1 Dec. we received the I am at RTC and am ok. We received the "box" about 4 days later. We received his form letter 2 days later. His Mom and sent several letters to him right away. He called a few days ago, but it was only for official duty. He needed additional info for his security clearance. It lasted just a couple of minutes. We still have not received a letter from him. We understand that he is very busy.

Finally got the "form letter" today. Ship:04 Div:084. Great to get the letter even if it was only to see his handwriting.

I see you're a veteran. This is all new to me.
