Answers to Common Questions

The Navy has updated their Cell Phone Usage (4/2024).

Read the article here on personal cell phones for call homes:

Personal Cell Phone Use for Calls Home

This link gives you a breakdown of the training schedule at boot camp.

BASIC MILITARY TRAINING SCHEDULE

New in 2022: Navy to lengthen Basic Military Training

Navy to lengthen Boot Camp - Navy Times

Are there any official RTC sites?

Yes, check out https://www.facebook.com/NavyRecruitTrainingCommand and http://www.bootcamp.navy.mil/. They will have lots of information for you. https://www.facebook.com/NavalServiceTraining also has items at times.

https://www.facebook.com/ASBPGreatLakes has pics of some of the recruits who give blood while at RTC. Those donations occur about 2 weeks (10 to 16 days depending on the division) before PIR.

You may also find pics in https://www.navy.mil/viewGallery.asp.

RTC will stream PIR live at http://navylive.dodlive.mil/ beginning at 8:45 am CST on the day of PIR for those who are unable to attend in person. (Once PIR has passed, you will be able to see the video at https://navylive.dodlive.mil/. If the one you want is not there, then click on a PIR video and then change the date in the URL to the date you want. You will have to change both the numerical date and the written out date in the URL. For example, if you want the video for the March 3, 2017 PIR date, then change https://navylive.dodlive.mil/2019/08/23/navy-recruit-graduation-august-23-2019/ to https://navylive.dodlive.mil/2017/03/03/navy-recruit-graduation-march-3-2017/.)

 

Can recruits take anything to BC with them?

Recruits should go with what they have on their backs, their cell phones, and not much else. Effective August 2022 Recruits can bring their own (approved) running shoes.  (See Things to Do in the Last Month Before Your Future Sailor Leaves for RTC.)

 

What will the first day be like at BC?

See Arrival and What Happens at RTC and Ship/Division--How it Works.

How long is the "I'm here!" call and when will s/he be able to call again?

See Phone Cards and Phone Calls.

 

I got my recruit's address from the recruiter. Can I trust it?

Double-check the address the recruiter gave you against those at 

RTC Division Addresses, but we strongly encourage you to wait on the form letter before sending mail to your recruit since the address provided by the recruiter prior to that can be wrong up to 11 business days or more after the recruit's arrival if the recruit failed the first attempt at the run and then passed (or failed) the second attempt and was ASMO'd to a different division (or to SEPS) or if RTC needed to move recruits for some reason. Sometimes a form letter is not mailed by accident and if it has been at least 3 calendar weeks since your recruit arrived at RTC and you do not have a form letter, then you can call the recruiter and get the address and mail letters to your recruit since the address in the system should be the correct one at that point, but be sure to double-check the address here Ship/Division--How it Works

---

**NOTE: There is a virtual graduation for your Sailor that you can watch on the RTC FaceBook page.  It is posted the FRIDAY after PIR.

RTC Facebook Page - Graduation

--- 

When will the Form Letter come and what is in it?

The form letter will arrive in your regular mail around nine to fourteen business days after the recruit's arrival at RTC since it is not mailed until a division’s 1-1 Day of Training, which takes place after your recruit has taken and passed the run portion of the Baseline PFA, which is on or about the fifth business day after arrival (later if the division that your recruit was tentatively placed in upon arrival did not fill until a later date). See Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) and Fitness Improvement Training (FIT)The brochure that is included from MWRGL about hotels and other things is at Travel Guide . The form letter includes your recruit's address, so now you can mail out all the letters you have been writing. There is more on this in Letter Writing & Fun Stuff/Questionnaires to send to your Recruit.

The form letter will also tell you the date of PIR, so you can start making plans for your trip. There are many hotels in the area and there is information in the grad pack and on this site about them. If you fly in, renting a car will make your life easier. Also, if you are flying, some airlines, such as Southwest, will allow you to change your flight without a charge if something happens, so you do not have to book refundable tickets.  ** EDITED - LIVE PIR's RESUME 8/13/2021**

UPDATED TRAINING SCHEDULE (6/2022 - Thanks to belovedbyHim)

The Expected timeline will look like this:

Day 0 -- Travel, Arrival and "I'm Here" scripted phone call

Week 1 Day 1-7 -- Arrive Onboard RTC and begin P-days (P-days- Initial Processing Days) including 2 days of P-hold (Weekend)

Day 8 -- Begin training and mail form letter out. Look for it to arrive around 1-2 weeks later
Week 2 -- First week of Training including PT and Swim Qualifications
Week 3 -- Marlin Spike - (Line handling- How to tie up a Ship to the Pier) , First inspections and tests (Dental May be this week or next... Not Confirmed)(Form letter/ Personal letters usually arrive this week) 

Week 4 -- Confidence Chamber & Fire Fighting training
Week 5 -- Fire Arms Training    

Week 6 -7 -- More training, Drilling (Flags and Marching).

Week 8 – Battle Stations (done prior to final PFA). Your SR will call home to say they are a Sailor but they still have to pass final PFA in order to graduate.

Week 9 & 10– Warrior Training (Life skills) and Final PFA


Approx 10 Fridays from Departure they will have PIR!! If you can go you will be amazed at the change that happened in just 10 short weeks. For the time being they are also still Live Streaming the PIR ceremony.

Once you know your recruit's PIR date, be sure to join the group for that date. PIR groups are posted on the Comment Wall below once they are created. 

USPS Informed Delivery - Sign up and receive an email from the US Postal Service showing what mail you will be getting each day (if available in your area).  

Informed Delivery®

How long should I plan to stay in the Great Lakes area?

Arrive at least the day before PIR so you can pick up your ticket/s for PIR and also attend Sarge's Meet and Greet if you wish to do so.

If your Sailor's "A" School or training is in GL, then plan to leave late Sunday or on Monday. If your Sailor will be flying out, then plan to leave late Saturday or on Sunday to have the most time with your Sailor. (This may need to be adjusted if PIR is not on Friday.) See Saving Money PIR Weekend and PIR Day and Liberty during PIR Weekend.

**UPDATED LIBERTY RULES - GL - AUGUST 2022**

Here is a link from Great Lakes regarding their Updated Liberty Rules during PIR weekend, effective August, 2022. (Thank you Amy for sharing this with me.)  I'll post it in a few different places.

Updated Liberty Rules for GL - August 2022

SARGE'S MEET & GREET  - BACK AS OF 3/18/2022

Plan to arrive the day before PIR so you won't risk missing PIR and go to Sarge's Meet and Greet from 4pm to 8pm the evening before PIR at the Lakehurst Event Center (go to http://www.mynavytaxi.com/events.html to RSVP). Sarge has a taxi service and he is a wealth of information. His cell number is 847-212-0246. His Meet and Greet and services have been getting great reviews. Find Sarge on N4M as OldSarge.

 

Who can attend PIR?

RESUMING LIVE PIR - 8/13/2021 

Your recruit will indicate the names of up to FOUR guests who will be permitted to receive tickets and attend PIR. RTC may change that to three guests if there is a large TG. Children ages 2 and under do not need a ticket to attend PIR, but a copy of the child's birth certificate may be presented in order for the child to attend PIR. The names of the guests will be listed on the Security Access Form. Your recruit will send the Security Access Form with the form letter and it will need to be completed fully and returned to your recruit. if you do not receive the form letter, then you can download the Security Access Form and complete it and send it to your recruit, but your recruit has the final say on who will attend PIR.

ALL GUESTS 3 YEARS OLD AND OLDER MUST HAVE A TICKET TO ATTEND PIR, INCLUDING MILITARY GUESTS (ACTIVE DUTY, RESERVE, RETIRED, VET). No extra guests allowed, no exceptions.

GUESTS SECURITY ACCESS FORM: If you are going to be attending the graduation ceremony, you will need to fill out the security access form, which is included with your form letter. Return the form to your recruit according to the instructions. 

ONLY YOUR RECRUIT CAN CHANGE THE GRADUATION CEREMONY ACCESS LIST: Your recruit will be able to make changes to the access list throughout training. The last opportunity to make changes will be the week before graduation. If there is a change to be made to the access list (such as a name spelled incorrectly, name-swap, etc…) please communicate any changes to your recruit by mail. Recruit Training Command staff cannot change these names or release the names of those on the list. Please do not call for additional seats!

The form can also be downloaded by anyone from the website, but only the recruit has final say-so as to who will be invited. Those names are submitted and those names will be printed on tickets. All of those guests attending must be present with ID to pick up the ticket in person. No exceptions, no swapping of tickets, no changing of names during final week of graduation.

If you are attending a graduation ceremony, you MUST personally obtain your ticket, you cannot pick up tickets for others. Tickets will be distributed at the Recruit Family Welcome Center, located inside the Navy Exchange Burkey Mall, Bldg. 3452, 2650 Green Bay Road Great Lakes, IL 60088 

Additional information on ticketing is also available at www.bootcamp.navy.mil. (See http://www.bootcamp.navy.mil/faq.html#grad_ceremony.)

Once you receive your ticket, please DO NOT lose it, as this will be the only ticket you will receive. These tickets are not transferable and are serialized to each graduation attendee. If you do not have a ticket, then you will not be permitted access to the base.

The Recruit Family Welcome Center will be open on the following days and times: Thursday [10:00 AM to 7:30 PM], and Friday [5:30 AM to 8:00 AM]. ***Certain federal holidays may require adjusting days and times. Please refer to the command website for those specific updates***

Please plan accordingly so each person listed can check in to receive a ticket for the graduation ceremony. Again, if you don’t have a ticket you will NOT be allowed entry to the base. Tickets will only be issued to those guests who the graduating recruit has verified will be attending. 

Driving on to base.

Driver’s license, vehicle registration, proof of insurance or rental car agreement and graduation ticket must be ready to present to security at access points. Everyone in the car ages three and over must show their ticket to graduation. If someone in the car over the age of two does not have a ticket, they are not allowed through the gate, no exceptions.

  • NO cell phone usage while driving on base! 
  • Seat belts are required for all drivers/passengers at all times
  • Motorcycle drivers/riders MUST have proper protective clothing/equipment such helmet, long pants, long-sleeved shirt, and over the ankle hard-soled boots.

Shanny ~ Trust me you’re not dramatic. I’ll be doing the same thing... drowning in my tears! Let’s do lunch! They do grow up fast and it’s so hard on a mamas heart <3 HUGS

Comment by VintageGal on December 17, 2020 at 12:02am

mom2blondies ~ Happy to hear that you got your grand-baby snuggles in today! Those are the best!

I’m wondering if my son will need his wisdom teeth out. I have mine because... I have a big mouth! Jk so I’m not sure if he’ll need his pulled. My daughters don’t exist which is nice. I hope that your son has little pain if he has to go through with it. 

Nice rug! :) 

Chipmunk ~ Enjoy your birthday festivities! It sounds like you got in a lot mama and child time! We ran to Costco to stock up on goodies and meats for the weekend. 

I have to tell you all my little tearful story from tonight. My husband and I were talking on the way to Costco. He had just gotten off the phone with his good friend who is having their first child and is super nervous. He asked if I had nursed our babies. He had told him that I did and he remembered when I was weaning our baby/sailor and he took him for a drive and he was crying his little heart out :( He was about 18 mths old. He finally fell asleep in the car. THE TEARS STARTED FLOWING!!! I told my husband that he wanted his mama!! Oh the mama allergies :(

Good night ladies! Time for The Amazing Race and a glass of wine ;)  

Comment by Chipmunk on December 16, 2020 at 9:48pm

Mom2blondies - My son did not have his wisdom teeth out either, as I think he may be like his father and missing some. But those that do, get SIQ - Sick In Quarters. They basically stay in their racks and rest and study while others like my son are standing their watches for them. So, for some it may be better than doing watch! Others may reply but the dentist at BC have a lot of experience with taking out wisdom teeth so there is at least that reassurance. They want them to get it done where they can keep an eye on things vs being out on a ship and needing an emergency. 

Shanny - Waffle House is also 24 hours I think so they have that going for them as well. I don't recall if IHOP is 24 hrs, I think Denny's is though.

Comment by Shanny on December 16, 2020 at 9:39pm

Chipmunk:  we have Denny’s and IHOP here. No Waffle House. He says whatever his friend got him is amazing. Then said Michigan needs Waffle House!

someone said fudge!  I need fudge. It’s the only time I like peanut butter...  when it’s peanut butter fudge!  I’ve never made it though...  

mom2blondies:. They didn’t take my son’s wisdom teeth. He said they told them they never fully developed and didn’t believe they would cause an issue.  I think I heard they get 2 days to recover from it...  LOVE the rug!!! Very cool!

vintage:. I still can’t look at the picture. I know I’m dramatic...  but I miss him and worry for those days he will be without the ability to communicate. It’s like they grew up over night. He doesn’t even talk the same anymore

Comment by Chipmunk on December 16, 2020 at 9:31pm

Shanny - Glad to hear that your sailor is making friends or connecting with old ones (that is great!) And yes, he needs to know he can reach out to his chief, but it sounds like his sponsor was doing what needed to be done, and someone else messed up. Waffle House - It is a Midwest thing as well! :-)

Comment by Chipmunk on December 16, 2020 at 9:27pm

VintageGal - My day was busy mostly with my kids and whatever I managed to post on here, and I am still behind!! I took my youngest to go buy his b'day present so we would have it for him to show off at his party. It is a Bow Stick for his Taekwondo!  Due to a few delays that took longer than I thought. And then I had a long conversation on the phone with another child and I still had another one I left a message for!!

Anti M - Just mentioning that you make good fudge has my mouth watering!!

Comment by mom2blondies on December 16, 2020 at 9:26pm

proud and grateful: I'm not optimistic that I'll be getting letters from my SR. He actually told me not to expect any as he'll be busy. I thought about sending questions for him to just fill in short answers but I think he'd be annoyed by that and not do it. I plan to write him and I'll ask questions but whether he answers them or not remains to be seen. 

I read on the FB page today that if they haven't had their wisdom teeth out that they will take them out at bootcamp. UHG! I've been bugging this kid for 4 years to let me schedule him with the oral surgeon and he always had some reason why he couldn't. Yeah, he was a busy kid and he had legitimate reasons with school/work/extracurriculars/training/etc. but now I'm wishing I had pushed harder and just made him go. I hope they have good oral surgeons in the Navy!! And now he will have to suffer through recovery alone in a room instead of being taken care of. 

I got to see my grandbaby today which always makes me so happy!! She has been the light in a very dark 2020! 

I ordered this rug for my SR bedroom and it came today. I think he'll get a kick out of it. His floor was always so full of work gear and workout equipment and laundry that there was no space for a rug and after cleaning his room it needed a little something. 

Comment by VintageGal on December 16, 2020 at 9:13pm

C’smom - sorry I meant to say you ARE so proud! 

Comment by VintageGal on December 16, 2020 at 8:59pm

Good evening ladies, 

Csmom - hi! Great picture! So handsome and I bet you were so proud!  so I asked my son if he’d like any of those undergarments and he said he could always use extra boot socks. I’ll be taking an account these brands that the ladies are mentioning. So curious to know if he receives permanent orders to somewhere cold, warm, or tropic! Any new news yet on movement? 

Warriorprotector and Belovedbyhim ~ thank you so much for the advice on their young marriage. I was as young as they were as well. I love the idea of writing a letter to each other on all of the expectations. I could easily give that information to my son because he is a black and white person when it comes to receiving information and absolutely loves psychology. 
you ladies are absolutely wonderful!! 

Newmilmom ~ we’re all embracing you and one big giant group hug. If I could give any bit of advice it would be to just make a checklist of everything you’d like to get done and do it for your son because he would want you to be happy. I know it’s easier said than done and sometimes you’d rather just have people listen instead of giving advice (that’s what I tell my husband anyway ;-P) but I hope that it’ll help. We’re all here for you mama night or day and I love reading your posts!!!!! I love your navy goblet of fire! ;) 

Shanny ~ oh Mylanta that picture really pulls on your heartstrings!!  I have pictures of my kids when they were little that I took from behind that are the absolute cutest and I will be doing that when he leaves again. Why? To torture myself!! <3 like all of us moms do!! 

Good night Phoenixmom ~ thank you for all your support as well! I appreciate your morning prayer and all the love and care that you bring to this group. 
Your kids are hysterical and they remind me a lot of my own! They rip on each other (all in fun) and sometimes have me laughing in tears!! I can’t wait till they’re all here together! 
your husband and guardian angel sounds like a wonderful man. He was quite the chef! I love jalapeño poppers! I buy the bacon wrapped jalapeños from the grocery store that they have at the butcher counter. Cheating yes I know lol sometimes a girls got to do what she’s gotta do! My youngest son has a pepper belly and so does his mama! 
Have a restful night Mamacita <3

Northwoodsmom ~ So sorry that you had to go back to virtual. I’ve been on virtual since the school year started. We soooo miss the kids and seeing them in person. I can’t wait to meet our kindergarteners in person! You’re so sweet to haul buns for your school babies! 
Your sugar creations always look so mouthwatering! I am not a baker and my sailor has always teased me about it. Sure hope that his fiancé likes to bake I know her mother does. I hope she inherited that trait because that boy likes some baked goods. Here’s a thought... he can take a baking himself! Yeah! 

Chipmunk ~ how was your day? Mine was busy and now I’m on the move to get things ready for Friday afternoon ;) 

Doribry ~ Hello! How are you? 

Proud and grateful ~ yay at receiving your form letter! Who would’ve thought that just SEEING your child’s handwriting would open the flood gates!!! BNMH!! 

DallasNavyMom  ~ oh my! Big hugs to you mama. I know yesterday had to hard. My son will be in quarantine on his birthday in January. TEARS!! 

Katharine ~ Hello! Seeing your posts is like catching a butterfly!!  LOL 

Good evening Anti M :) I hope you’re feeling well. Time for this gal to enjoy some hot tea and put my feet up. 

Have a peaceful sleep ladies. Sweet dreams to you and your Sailors :) 

Comment by Anti M on December 16, 2020 at 8:51pm

Wow, so much to catch up on.  

I was a baker, and made all sorts of wonderful things, often from scratch.  Now it is just me, I have no motivation or interest in all that work.  I have a couple premade pie crusts in the freezer, and a few cake mixes, in case I get the urge.  Not baking for the neighbors this year, or making fudge.  I ordered some from Etsy to support a small business, my fudge is so much better.
