MECEP questions.. Mustangs, please help!

I was told that TBS (the basic school) in Quantico, VA was only Monday through Friday. He should still receive BAH.. especially if he's training. Your family still has to have somewhere to live right?

OCS he will be away from you. You will live with him when he goes to school. I'm pretty sure he'll have the weekends with you during TBS also. That's what I've gathered from everyone who's posted with helpful answers here.

I'll be interested also to find out about the deadlines and the application process. There are probably answers on the usmc.mil page. That's where I found a lot of the documents with lots of helpful answers.

Monday through Friday is more or less accurate, but there are certainly times when he'll have training events on a Saturday, or he'll be voluntold to attend some sort of other base event. And there are remedial sessions for things like land nav that take place on Saturdays as well.

So the bottom line is that he will typically be home on Saturdays, but you can't count on it 100%. Believe that he's home for the weekend when you wake up Saturday morning & he's still there. :-)

Haha - thanks, Big Al! For the longest time my computer was fubared & wouldn't let me post in ANY of these forums, only read posts. For reasons unbeknownst to me, it started working again tonight. :sigh: Technology. Computers are wayyyy more Isrowei's thing than they are mine!
