My husband is starting API next month and has to report on Dec. 3rd. What are the schedule's like for the holidays? (This isn't my first, second, hell even third school with the Navy that he has been though either.) I ask because we have 3 kids and are trying to plan Christmas around what will be going on with him. I understand the leave policies and such so I was just curious. Thanks!
Your husband won't class up before the Christmas break unless he is a "validator" (must already have a private pilot's license). He won't be allowed to go in the hole for more than 10 days. If you decide to stay local, he'll only have to muster a few times, so you're probably better off not taking leave unless you plan to leave the local area. Classes end on Dec 17th and resume on Jan 3rd.
