counting down the days

[pilotofatx]

Well, surgery went very well, I am almost fully recovered. Now I am down to counting the days and hours till I depart for RTC.

A couple of questions:

What do I need to bring to RTC? I know most stuff gets sent back in a box.
Can I bring my address book , stamps, envelopes, and a pad of paper?
Is a 120 minute calling card enough? I assume so.
Do I need to bring direct deposit info and a voided check?


I am sure I'll think of more as last minute thoughts race trough my head! Its time for sleep, we just got back from Lake Travis, I am BURNED and exhausted. My body is very sore from wake boarding hah..

Note: this cotton blanket from Mexico makes my sun burn itch a million times more..HOORAY for aloe plant that grows in my backyard! (sorry,late night humor, if you call it that)

I would recommend a 500 minute card, as using pay phones uses up more of the minutes. You will getto buy stamps, evelopes paper and such when there, they like you to use what they have there. Yes, bring your address book, as long as it is VERY SMALL, like the size of a credit card!

Yes, to stamps and deposit slips... Especially if you have bills coming out of that account.
They try to persuade you to open a Navy federal account... If so you can split your money into both accounts if you wish.
