Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones)
To everyone with a loved one at RTC or soon to be there, we say, "Welcome!" To those who are sticking around after PIR to help those who are just beginning this awesome journey, we say, "Thank you!"
**BEGINNING OCTOBER 5, 2023, RECRUIT GRADUATIONS WILL BE CONDUCTED EVERY THURSDAY (NO LONGER ON FRIDAY), EXCEPT FOR THE WEEK OF THANKSGIVING, WHEN GRADUATION IS ON WEDNESDAY.
This is a place to talk, ask questions, and share stories. It is our desire that this Group will provide the information, encouragement, and support you need while your loved one is at RTC in Great Lakes. Enjoy your time here and feel free to Comment and join in the Discussions.

ProudmamaMRD3 - Welcome!! Diahn has shared some great information with you. Here is a discussion that I started after Covid, where some of our members shared their thoughts after PIR. PIR Weekend Experiences - Post Covid
I encourage any members to add any updates to this discussion for future reference.
Have you received your form letter or a message from Sandboxx App yet? You should receive a pamphlet with information on hotels.
Here is the link from the RTC website for all information pertaining to graduation - U.S. Navy Recruit Training Command > Graduation
It looks like the hotel information may be online - check here: navylifegl.com/rtc
As Diahn said, Flexibility is the biggest key to having a wonderful experience at graduation. You will want to arrive the day earlier, as that should make it easier to pick up your tickets. And to attend Sarge's Meet n Greet.
