My son just went to BC last week. His recruiter told him before he left they were adding an additional 2 weeks for sailorization. I guess this has been a pilot program up until this point and was administered during INDOC at A school. It was always intended to be incorporated in to BC and it looks as though now that is being implemented. Having said that, I cannot find anyting on the RTC pages to confirm the final decision. One of the admins on the FB forum called their liaison at RTC and they were told BC is still 8 weeks. Another mom confirmed with her son that his graduating class of 11/6 PIR was the last class to be 8 weeks of BC. But again, no official word that I can find. So I cannot confirm until I get his form letter with his PIR date.
