My son graduates boot this Friday, March 30th. I know that I will be able to give him his cell phone at the airport when he leaves for San Antonio, but what about other things. He has a laptop that we got for him just prior to him leaving and I know he will ask about that. Will he be allowed to have that upon arrival at FSH when he starts A-school?
I'm just planning my bags to pack to head up tomorrow. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Don

I checked out FSH on line and it is very purple; with a tendency of Army Green. Son#2 is heading down at the end of April. Son#1 A school was at GL so they have some stories to swap.
Actually I would not give him a lot...His cell and laptop/alarm clock are a musts; however, those first few weeks are overwhelming..Give him some time, then have him send you a list. They actually are limited on time for A school can be intense for they are still leaning and coming off an emotional high from boot...Also this a time they quickly learn self discipline. What they do not have they can find at the exchange. Too there is not much room in their lockers and weekly have room inspections. Bottom line keep life simple and with due time (when they arrive at their prem duty station they will know what they really need and want), they will figure it...
