The best person to ask this of is hoppi. However, I think that the deal is if their A school is closed for the holidays and there is not some unusual thing to do with your recruit they all have leave until Jan 6th. but please don't accept this as absolute. what you are seeing on the web site is aimed at the rest of the year. If it wasn't that the A schools were closed for the holidays then the info on the web site would be correct. It is normal for those who will be going on to A school at GL to get three days liberty and have to remain within 50 miles of GL. And the rest are what is called graduate and go which means they leave soon as the Navy travel office has booked their flight which would be different for sailors going to places other then GL. But as I said above don't accep this as gospel!

As long as the recruit has a leave chit in, he can go on leave. That is what I have "heard". This is one time the Recruits know more than we do LOL!

Recruits = BC
Sailors = After BC

My son must be cutting it close because his return flight is not until the 3rd and I think he wrote that, that would allow him three days of sightseeing in Chicago to boot. But perhaps the different schools there all have different report days. Plus he wrote that his AECF school would not graduate until Aug 10th at which time he could get from 2 to 4 weeks of leave and he claimed someone suggest because that was considers a long time he could most likely get the whole 4 weeks.
