How long are they usually? Here's the situation...df is going to Jacksonville, FL on friday, and they said 2 months?? Is it really that long of a delay?

I wish I could ask dh, but he is sleeping and would kill me if I woke him up to ask :giggle

It could be something as simple as they need more instructors or the class before his got held up because some one got into trouble.

they delay whatever for however long because they have in their contract that they cant make you train for a job you didnt agree to or send you to a place you didnt agree too.

This IS Navy right? Navy is the only one I know with A-school.

But yeah, they sit on it because if they make you do anything else you have the right to be honorably discharged. Thats what I heard from the recruiter and from people leaving for boot

there could be a lot of people going to that A school and there just isn't room for him yet. Sometimes they say 2 months but it could really be just 2 weeks. it depends.

I agree, it could just be b/c there are so many people at the A school, and they can only have so many classes going at once. When I was in the Navy, I got to my A school at the beginning of December and didn't "class up" until February. So he could be waiting around for 2 months.

so if there's an "a" school delay-- that means he gets to come home??
