    When you get there you will get to call home/some one to let them know you arrived safe and sound.

    If you was like me Fidelis, you might want to call 911 instead of home.

    You have to contact someone but you will only be able to read the paper thats inside the phone cover.

    Just make squadleader and youll be promoted or get high scores on the PFT/CFT/Rifle Range.

    When you went in you had to dial 0 (zero) for da' operator......

    "Operator, how may I direct your call?"

    Sorta like JAIL in a way

    BUT , the phone call from MCRD is Mandatory
    Probibly , all you need to do is yell the script
    like its written and nobody would notice
    if you talked thru a DIAL TONE...........

    HAHAHAHA!


    I tried to call. Never was able to. My family didn't hear from me until I was able to send my first letter about 3 weeks after getting down there. The phone call home should be the last thing on your mind.

    If you get hurt or something happens your family will be contacted. You wont be able to talk to them during boot if that doesn't happen, outside a nice senior giving you a phone call... but don't expect one.. very few get that. I got that for shooting all of the targets at the rapid fire segments perfect.. senior just happened to be standing behind me.

    Best of luck to you, and make sure to write a lot,

    I got about a 15 second phone call. Supposed to read the sheet. Instead, I told my Mom "Hear all that yelling? They're being quiet right now and they don't seem to shut up or get tired".

    Little did I know...
