The Rating Information Card for HM can be found at https://www.cool.navy.mil/enlisted/rating_info_cards/hm.pdf; it indicates 19 weeks, but "A" School is 14 weeks after classing up. Your Sailor will most likely fly out to "A" School the day after PIR. See PIR Day and Liberty During PIR Weekend to help you know how to plan your weekend.

If your Sailor is picked for the Field Medical Training Battalion (FMTB) then check out Camp Lejeune Moms and FMF Corpsman moms. If he becomes eligible for SARC, check out SARC, Special Amphibious Recon Corpsman.

Hi! I am staying through Sunday Morning incase they get Sat off too on leave! I heard they may fly back on Sat to San Antonio, but who knows, so I am leaving Sunday morning back to Austin, Tx. Josh said they get leave in San Antonio right away and he is coming home, but I am not sure really how that works or the dates yet! I think we just have to wait until Friday the 25th to find out!

I go my tickets on Expieda on purpose, if you buy the $26 flight insurance you can move the flight earlier or later!  Hope that helps a little!
