sorry to kind of bump a dead thread, but this is regarding space in the BEQ.
All of my earthly belongings fit in my trusty backpack and this old ratty suitcase that I have. My backpack I can get when my parents visit for PIR, but this suitcase, which contains pretty much all my civvies and some trinkets, I was planning on having my uncle ship it over to NNPTC. A: Would there be a problem with this i.e. anyone higher up the chain would see this and say no? and B: would there be enough space to kind of stash it away without taking up too much space? worst comes to worst, ill just end up donating all my old clothes, but i would really like to keep my sneaker collection...

As far as your sneaker collection...depends on how many you are talking about...just know when you do finish all your training you will be sent to either a carrier or a sub,,,both have very limited space to store stuff.

BTW, your parents won't be able to give you your backpack unless they come to the airport to see you off after PIR. Then you will be in dress uniform and anything you carry has to accessorize with that. IIRC, a backpack must to be black.
It doesn't sound like you have too much stuff, but the suitcase might be difficult to stow. |

Oh man, we just had a huge "Health and Wellness" inspection a few weeks ago. Everyone rooms got checked. It was crazy. So much booze found.

Do they announce inspections or was it a total surprise?

Total surprise. I was in the middle of cleaning the Rickover (T-Track) and then all students were told to leave the building immediately except for married sailors. Power Schoolers left in the building assumed everyone elses watch, and all the BEQs were inspected. No notice whatsoever.

Just a few questions!
What holidays are included in stand down times? Do the liberty radius rules apply during those times or would I be okay to see my family in PA as long as I get back in time? If my family comes to South Carolina for vacation would they be allowed on base at all and could I show them my room or anything? Has anyone failed out that you started with? Are there many females there? |

The only time we as family were on base, by which I assume you mean the part of the base where the school is, was at graduations, and then only certain parts of the campus not including the BEQ. If you family comes down for vacation, best to think in terms of visiting downtown Charleston (1/2 hour away) and/or Patriots Point, maybe go to the beach at Isle of Palms or Folly Beach. |
