As we head into the Memorial Day weekend we have information about when your loved one’s basic training mailroom will be closed for the holiday, so that you can make sure to get your letters to your recruit before the long weekend. The dates below are subject to change depending on the needs of the Command. Additionally, our print room will be closed on Monday, May 27, 2024 in observance of Memorial Day.
If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to our Customer Happiness team.
