Question about Christmas Exodus?
My husband attended some type of classes in Ft. Jackson, South Carolina from October 2nd- November 6th.
On November 6th he arrived at Ft. Knox, Kentucky for OSUT.
Neither I or his mother have received any phone calls or letters from him or his command and it has been 8 days. Is this normal?
I know the chances of his mother getting a phone call or letter before me are slim, I just humor her. You know how in laws can be.
Anyway, He has Christmas Exodus from December 19th - January 3rd.
I have heard that I will get a letter from either him or a genetic letter from his commander telling me when to purchase his plane tickets home, and I have also heard that the base sets up his flights and I do not have to do anything? Which is it and what is your experience with this?
Thanks in advance.

its not particularly normal to have heard nothing, but he may very well be caught up in whats going on. similarly although they typically allow you the opportunity to call home and let them know youve arrived, they might not have gotten the chance.
sad part of training is that phone calls are usually conditional, one person can (and usually will) ruin it for everyone...
try not to worry about it...
anyways, when i flew home for christmas exodus, they took the whole unit down to the "travel agent" on post and we booked our flights there and back. im not sure if this is typical of all training sites tho
