If you know what battalion your son is with, usually they have a facebook page that you can follow and post pics on it..

The person that is following them has to be authorized I believe to do so. You can not get on base with out signing in to the main desk area, unless it is someone related and has clearance, but since you say they are taking pics while training, it is probably someone authorized to do so.  Keep checking the facebook page and ask your son while he is in town to check local papers.  If he just got there, they are not to leave off base without a buddy.

Queennavymama,your sailor became a hospital corpsman when he graduated A school :)  He'll be qualified as an 8404 corpsman when he graduates FMTB.  That link has all the NEC codes for hospital corpsmen.
