How helpful is the RTC in allowing my son to get a Police Report for his stolen wallet???
Seriously, his wallet was stolen at BC (PIR 9/14). It contained his Driver's License, Social Security Card and possibly his NFCU info.
All the information I am seeing on line about replacing those stolen items and reporting to the Credit Bureau is the need for an initial Police Report on the incident.
This just makes me ill because they already have enough they have to go through once they move into A School. Just very concerned he will not get what he needs to properly take care of this once he leaves BC.
Help!

Has he reported this to his RDC's? He will be able to get much more accomplished on his end then you will be able to on yours as far as taking care of the things he needs to while in bootcamp.

It would be more of a military police situation. It would be taken care of in house. Has he reported it to his RDC. They would then do their own investigation.

My son's wallet was stolen while deployed. The wallet was never located, but the military was helpful in getting everything taken care of. He should speak to his RDC and I am sure they will help with the reporting issue.

I hope they find out who the thief is and boot him out of boot camp. If it was indeed a SR, they do not deserve to be there and need to go home immediately. Has there been any mention of possible crooks? I am so sorry your SR is having to go thru this. My son had his brand new Van tennis shoes stolen from him in the Varsity Football locker room and I was so devastated at that, I can only imagine how this feels.
