After PIR, When Does He Leave For A School?
I've been reading on this forum and I guess he leaves Saturday morning, but I'm not sure.
He's going to A school in Meridian, MS, logistics something.
Do they get to stay gone all night Friday or report back that night?

No, there is NO overnight Liberty for PIR weekend. He will most likely fly out the day after PIR. Only your Sailor will know his flght arrangements for certain. He will have Liberty from about 10:30 when Liberty is called until sometime in the evenig (usually around 8 to 9 pm) and he will need to be back at the RTC about a half hour before Liberty expires to be certain to get back to the ship on time. He will let you know what airport he will fly out of and when so you can meet him at the airport and spend time with him before his flight and give him his cell phone, laptop, and other things that will fit in his black backpack.
The rating is Logistics Specialist (LS). Here are some groups that will help you: Logistics Specialist (LS), Sailors attending A School in Meridian, Mississippi, and Meridian Mississippi A School family&friends.
