How did you get to do that? Because that's exactly what I'm planning to do. We're deciding on 12-28-14. Does that sound probable? I ship out in June and should be in my A school in August. They said my A school would take about a year. Just some background info

Do you think it's likely to get a phone call at least during Christmas. I ship out 20151208. It would be nice to get to talk to them on Christmas day.

Yes.
They treat recruits pretty well for the holidays.

Glad you guys brought this topic up, I ship 20151221 and was a little curious as to the same. Although I guess it depends entirely when I leave considering it could be the first week of December or first week of January...it is getting close fast!!!

You can either expect an extra week of training to compensate for all the holidays, or a really condensed schedule to fit everything in (we took our final test and PFA the same day we did Battlestations, which was 2 days before our PIR). Also be prepared for flu season… wintertime has higher ASMO rates because so many people get sick.

Oh fantastic... I heard we are going to get two flu shots instead of just one

I don't know about the flu shot, but you'll get two penicillin shots.
