Save Your Uniforms, Just in Case!
October 7th, 2008
Navy Veterans (NAVETs) re-accessing into the Active Component do not attend Navy Recruit Training but are ordered to Recruit Training Command Great Lakes for in-processing only (i.e., duty station assignment, administrative processing, uniform outfitting, etc.).
All NAVETs must have a complete seabag. To save yourself some money you should bring previously purchased, fully serviceable sea bag items to avoid unnecessary expenses. If you are thinking of getting out make sure you save some closet space just in case you ever decide to re-enlist!
When you arrive at RTC you must have complete copies of your enlistment physical DD Forms 2808 and 2807-1 when reporting. These documents will be packaged for you by the local Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) where you completed your re-enlistment.
NAVETs may require up to 60 days to complete processing at RTC. The average processing time is 30 days for state side orders and 45 days for overseas orders but plan on the 60 days. It will hinge on many factors including how quick your Detailer can process your orders and get them to you.
