What is the name of your state? IN
I left on a Greyhound Bus, on the 9th of June. I told the Taxi driver I was turning my self in (He get's about 5 people a month, he says). He took me to the main gate, and I sat on a bench behind the guard buliding untill a MP arrived. I was not put in handcuff's, but I know some was. Just depends on the MP. I answered some questions from the MP, and sat in the front of his car. He was very nice, and we even chitchatted about various things.
I arrived at the PCF on Monday, around 8PM. They searched my bag, and took away my extra cash and cell phone. Then one of the civilians briefed me. They tell you, you will be there 2-4 weeks, but thats BS. It is very lax there. You will spend most of your time sitting on a bench, and doing little details. I mowed alot of grass, which is fine by me cause I got tired of sitting on that bench. When you talk to the Civilians, it's yes sir, no sir, at parade rest. They are pretty nice, if you do what you are told. If you are bad, you get extra fireguard shifts, and your paperwork can be lost. You will probably have two fireguard shifts why you are there, 1hr each. You sit at the end of the hallway, shining your boot's. Yes, you wear BDU's why there. They will cut your hair, on one of three day's. Monday, Wensday, and Friday. Basic style. You get free time between 8PM-10PM, and you can use the pay phone and where your civilian clothes during this time. You can smoke anytime you are outside, pretty much. Bring lot's of smokes with you, because people will want you to share. I don't smoke but many people there did. You go to the chow hall 3 times a day, at 8, 1, and 6. You are the last to eat, because they do not want the soldiers talking to you. You are not supposed to talk in the chow hall. The civilians never really jump on your *** if you do something wrong, they just warn you and are pretty nice and funny about it. Like I said, it's really lax.
I was only there 5 day's, and I recommend you get there around the same time I did. You inprocess Tuesday, see ACAP Wensday, Talk to the 1st sergeant Thursday, and go see JAG Friday. We were released right before lunch. They gave people rides to the airport and bus station, and western union if you needed money.
Any question's, I will be glad to answer them.
