Question
hello my son is in boot camp at fort jackson sc. his graduation date is september 18.just today his grandmother recieved a letter from him saying he dislocated his knee.how do i find out if he is ok ? Is there a number i can call? Thank you
If you know your son's unit you can then get on the www.jackson.army.mil website and use the 'basic training' link to get a contact number for his company to call him. Dont give up on the attempts as I'm sure they're busy and may not be in the office all the time. There isn't really a universal 'soldier locator' for trainees so that's the best I can offer. Hope it helps.
