My son had the same experience as Jeff's. He was off on the weekend and left on Tuesday for A school.

John - when my son graduated there were both grab and go's and some that had a few days of liberty. My son was off on the weekend and then he left for SC on Tuesday to report to A school. I am not sure how they determine who is and who is not a grab and go. From what I was told - some of the parents did not know their childs status until a few days before PIR (Pass in Review - graduation).

The reason for the delay is because ballspa had some issues a few months ago. The sailors up there were shipped to goose creek and were waiting to fo back to New York. My son starts Prototype today in goose creek when your sailor finishes power school let me know,We rented an awesome house with 2 others & got great deal. Also I have great info on power school grad. We rented a House on sullivans island for a much better deal than a hotel. E-mail me or get in touch for any info. Thanks, Tim

Also tell your sailor to enjoy his time off because power school is no joke. Lots of studying. I'm on facebook and have some great pics, tim reddell

My son finished A school a few weeks ago and was SUPPOSED to go straight to Power School - now he has about 2 months (as of the latest news) until Power School starts. He was told that there was a backlog of people and they needed to delay his group and others.

Ernie....My son went to "A" school for MM. That was 3 months. Now comes Power school for 6 months and then Prototype school for an additional 6 months. As Sheryl stated, providing he doesn't get T tracked.

I forget, but if you look back through the comments page by page that is in there somewhere (how long the school is), but note, there can be months of delays before and between each and they do something called "T" track. See all comments on pages before this. Take care.

He is going to MM A school. I was wondering how long is the Nuke school?
Comment by Sheryl on October 12, 2009 at 11:58am
He may have a delay for a couple of weeks like my son did when he got to A school before he actually started. He will have been there three months for A school when he graduates on October 23rd
