My 17 yo son is graduating from basic training at Fort Jackson 8/25. We were wondering if he will be able to leave base with us after graduation ceremony as he is doing the split option and returning home with us to finish his senior year of high school. Also, how does he change his flight home that he has been given so he can fly home with us, his family on our flight/day/time? Thank you for your help. :)

I am expected to be going to Ft. Jackson pretty soon. Definatly could use some tips. I go for the asvab test in 2 days. My recruiter came over today to make sure we were still on. Also i'll be going to Boston for MEPS in the end of sept. so I don't forfeit the bonus for my MOS. Thanks for any help! Specially want to know about those DS's!:o

Well what I have seen some people do in order to go home with there families is deal with the air lines directly. They just go to the airport and have them change it around.

When I asked to change my flight around to go home with my family, they told me tough luck and that I would see them when I got home! lol
