      Depending on his rate, his destination after boot camp may be Groton for Bess or elsewhere for specialty training like culinary. Most go to Groton for BESS (basic enlisted sub school) 8 weeks, ATT school, Techno, then A school - all in all about 10 months before being assigned to a boat. Nukes do have a different route.

      What he will really want will be regular clothes, his phone etc. at Groton there are few restrictions on what he can have. My son has never asked for flash light etc.

      Don't know if that is of help.

        My son is a Nuke, he only asked for stamps. He was in Orlando for power school (now closed), Charleston for prototype, he's been at Kings Bay for seventeen years, with the exception of two years of shore duty teaching in Charleston. Have your check what he can have at his next duty station. I'm sure he'll do great in submarine service. I'll be sending positive thoughts his way.
