Hi All,
Well my son went to Pensacola yesterday, and he said it is HOT and the RDC's had them dressed for winter. LOL P-cola wears whites all year round, so I guess they knew who the newbies were!! When he called the phones there are terrible, the first one we couldn't hear him, went to a different one and could barely hear him. Just sent him his phone, hope that works out, I will let you know!!
Good luck to all our new Sailors!!

Yes they should be able to. They will be prepaid. Kayla actually got one until I brought hers to her and she went to the NEX to get it. So I am going to say yes.
