BECC Info?

by adubz33

Mar 14, 2016

My sailor just started BECC. From what I found is it's about 49 days on average of training. Has anyone had anything else about BECC? And can they take leave after BECC and also, would my sailor be allowed to take marriage leave while he is in BECC or will he have to wait?

    He is going to be an EM. He will be in Great Lakes for about a year, I'm thinking. I know he has BECC then ATT and then he starts his A School. I was just curious if they get a break between each segment of classes or if they are continuous. If he can't get leave then he will just have to get married on a Friday and Saturday like you said.

        Hi adubz33 my son is also a em (electricians mate)  Is that correct? he just recently graduated A school Jan. 31st. All together for school was 6 months. If it is an Electricians mate he will be, at the end if A school he will be a EMFN. Which is an Electricians mate Fireman. If you need info I can let you know what I know.
