Since your recruit will go to “A” School for Boatswain's Mate (BM), join Boatswain Mate. You will also want to join Great Lakes A School Q&A and GL A-school moms. You can also check out the Training Support Center (TSC) Great Lakes Facebook Page.
The Rating Information Card for BM can be found at https://www.cool.navy.mil/usn/enlisted/rating_info_cards/bm.pdf. (If you get the security warning, it is safe to go there.)
You will be able to enjoy extra time with your Sailor following PIR. Plan to leave late Sunday or on Monday if you are able to do that. (See PIR Day and Liberty during PIR Weekend.)

Since you have a Sailor, you can change "Waiting to leave for Boot Camp" above to “Enlisted.”
If you get an error message, then look at the area/s in the error message and unclick all of the choices in the area/s and make choices closer to the question/s. Some choices may have changed since you joined.
