Documents at RTC
 

Hello! Question!

When going to RTC, I'm actually planning on taking nominal stuff. By nominal I mean pretty much as little as possible.

Would I be ok with taking a folder with all the documents I need? (Birth Certificate, Marriage License, ETC)

Oh, and address books are ok to take as well right?

Your recruiter will give you a packet with all of that in it, it will be turned in soon after arriving to RTC. A small address book is fine.

Awesome.

So, then, would it be ok to put some pictures in my address book? I was thinking of taping some pictures in the back but I dunno if that'll get me into trouble.

No that's fine, I had some taped in my bible.

Awesome! Thanks ND!

Shipped to RTC back in July and I brought my wallet with no issues, and had plenty of pictures stuffed in it. They didn't look through my wallet or address book at all. So you can bring all of that with no worries :happyfeet:

is it worth bringing your cell phone to do the 15 sec phone call home upon arrvial to Boot Camp? why do you call home? is there anyone that did not call home?

I am pretty sure that you have to call someone.

Do we really have to call someone? I was planning on not bringing my cell at all and then have it shipped to me once I get to A-school. I have no one to call anyway. Family and Friends aren't supportive of my decisión to join and will not go to graduation either.
