    Since your recruit has contracted within the A-PACT program, the information within Professional Apprenticeship Career Tracks (PACT) Program will be of interest to you.

    Your Sailor will most likely fly out to Pensacola the day after PIR, but may fly out on Sunday due to flight availability issues. Plan to leave on Sunday if you are able. See PIR Day and Liberty during PIR Weekend to help you know how to plan your weekend.

    She may have been at an appointment or perhaps you didn't recognize her. The recruits really do look alike and it is very common not to recognize your recruit or to mistake another for her.

    There is info about Recruit Medical Yeoman in Recruit Petty Officer Positions.

    Yes, most Sailors do take about 10 days of leave before their first duty station. Be sure she does RAP duty with her recruiter so she can get 5 days of unchargeable leave after she reports to her new command.

    Click on OPSEC and PERSEC (Making Changes to Your Profile) and the Page will open in a new window. Read the Page and follow the directions at the bottom to make change 3 (see the words in bold) so that this page is no longer visible to EVERYONE (Anyone) with access to the web. Don’t forget to click the “Save” button at the bottom.

    There may be other changes you need to make as well, so read and consider each of the changes.

    Another change that I recommend that is mentioned in change 1 is to change the ZIP Code to one that is not easily associated with your Sailor

    She will be with her current command for at least 2 years, but it could be as long as 3 years depending on her orders. Sailors have rotations of sea and shore duty and OCONUS and CONUS.
