Yes you can keep a bible and postage stamps. You can take your own postage stamps or buy some at the NEX. The smaller your bible the better beacause thats less room you have.

You can have alot of different things. Just dont sneak food or any contraband. You can take an address book also. You have a small drawer that you lock up and your RDC's cant go look in it. You can also take as much money as you want with you but i suggest only about $30. They issue you a NEX gift card that has $150 i believe. So you basically buy everything you need with that. I still have $24 dollars left on mine lol.

When i went i took $20, a small bible, and an address book with photos of my family taped in it. Sent everything else back in the box. You dont need much. You will be issued just about everything you need. And if you need anything else you can always get it when your division goes on a NEX run.

Hey, im also going to RTC in 5 months. I ship out from NYC on September 5th. When are you shipping out?

Dre505 · 04-01-2013, 06:08 PM

Yeah, for some reason a lot of guys in my division had problems doing those 3 things. Which are the easiest things you will do while your at RTC.
