<p>NOLA-Mom, I think the number of phone calls home, can vary, depending on how the division is doing and whether or not they can get time at the phone bank. It also may depend on how large the TG is. With my son, he actually told me he would call again in 3 weeks, so we had a 3 week call, a 6 week call that come one the same day and about the same time as the 3 week call and then we had the "I'm a sailor" call - that my son did not even tell me he had passed BST-21, instead he asked if we had…</p>

<p>Any calls before the 6 weeks, would not necessarily be good news, so NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS, continues to hold true. So, it is just a wait and see situation. That might be something you could ask him in a letter and maybe he could give you a heads up, if he knows they might get another call.</p> Does anyone know if they are…tag:navyformoms.ning.com,2020-02-02:1971797:Comment:107294932020-02-02T19:55:01.527ZNOLA-Momhttps://navyformoms.ning.com/profile/Kelly414

My son left a week before yours and we just got the phone call today. He said they had to wait a week for his division to fill up so they are a week behind. Just hang in there and keep your phone with you, I was outside shoveling snow so I missed the call but then he called his dad's phone and we both got to talk. You will treasure that call so try not to miss it.

<p>Like other have said, answer every call. You can always hang up.Depending on your service provider, it may or may not say pay phone. All of our calls came from 847, however, if your SR is calling from an office and not the phone banks if could from any of several other area codes. Originally all the Chicago area was 312 before they started overlaying 7 other area codes. The other likely ones to see are 224 & 872.

<p>Welcome Nola-Mom,</p>
<p>I didnt receive my first call from mine until 3 weeks in to BC. It was on a Saturday and my calls came from a Chicago area code. I would answer all calls from now on and if it is a telemarketer like Chipmunk said then hang up on them. I didnt have any weird numbers, they all came from Chicago. BNH's to you. </p>

<p>NOLA-Mom - we usually recommend that you answer all calls. It has been 2+ years since my son was at BC but the first time he called, it did not say IL, it was something else. I assumed it was because of the calling card he used. Then the next time he called, I think it showed as IL. </p>

<p>Hopefully, you have your voicemail set up on your phone and you can leave a message that tells your son to call you back if you missed him, but that is up to you.
