<p>Terri, your recruit would have had holiday routine for the first time yesterday and would have been able to write. Expect a "real" letter this week.

<p>Terri, your recruit would have had holiday routine for the first time yesterday and would have been able to write. Expect a "real" letter this week.

<p>You may receive an "I'm still alive!" call in week 3 or 4 (calendar week, not DOT), but that call can come before or after that depending on when the RDC is able to schedule the phone banks. Don't expect a call, but do have your phone available from 8ish am to 8ish pm Central Time and be pleasantly surprised when you receive a call. The "I'm still alive!" call or other calls the RDC schedules usually come in the mornings on weekdays except on the day of a PIR because the "I'm a Sailor!" calls, which are typically made 1-7 days, but can come up to 10 days, before PIR, are in the afternoon and evenings, but calls can come anytime during those hours on Saturday. Calls on the day of a PIR or on Sunday come between 1 and 8 pm. Calls for security reasons or for information are generally made during regular business hours. Remember "No news is good news!"

My son left Tuesday February 23, 2016 and I got his box on February 26th, 3 days later and received the form letter a week later! That's all I have gotten so far! No call or letter from him yet! Does anyone know how long until you hear from your recruit?

<p>Thank you for all the scoop. I did find some things out and finally rec'd my FORM letter. I was so happy Saturday! Looking forward to writing my girl, and hopefully send her a phone card before she graduates! I miss her more than imagined! But, I know God is doing great things! GO NAVY!</p>

<p>She will be in a integrated division, one with both males and females, and they sometimes take longer to fill than all male divisions.
