PacNWmom: They may not be able to write yet....or maybe were allowed to write for the first time this past weekend. It takes about 2 weeks for the Recruit Mail Petty Officer to be trained for a division. My son told me before he left for Bootcamp 5 years ago, that he wouldn't be writing because he doesn't like to write (just texts!), but he would call when he could....he wrote me 5 letters.....so you may be surprised! They live for mail !

Jodie: Some of them write under the "red lights" after lights out. If they can keep their eyes open! They can only mail out on Mondays though (collected Sundays), once they are allowed to start writing/receiving mail . They will receive mail M-F then.

My husband said he gas written a letter every day since he has been there except for the first initial night. Are they allowed to write at lights out or do they have to squeeze it in when ever they can?
