Navy Dads

I was a Recruit Division Commander (RDC) from 2002-2005 so I may be able to answer any questions you may have about what your recruit can expect to go through while at Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes. I trained over 650 of my own recruits and assisted other RDCs in training over 1000 more recruits.

I was there when ships were made of wood and men were made of steel. LOL Actually, I was at Great Lakes for bootcamp and "A" school, August 1976 - March 1977. I was in company 76-936 Triple Threat and OS "A" school before it was moved to Dam Neck, VA.
Oh, OK.

I actually went to boot camp and then BE/E in Orlando from May to October 1985. Then to ET "A" school in Great Lakes from November to July. Summer in Florida and winter in Great Lakes. Not a good start!
