Hometown News

The first 72 hours:

When your son, daughter, spouse or friend arrives at San Antonio’s International Airport, they will be greeted by a BMT Reception Center Military Training Instructor (MTI). Newly arriving trainees are instructed to call home and let family know they safely arrived in San Antonio – regardless if your trainee called you when they first get off the plane.

Your trainee will call or text within a 72 hour period of arriving in San Antonio. The purpose of this phone call or text message, is to give you their mailing address. This is the address your trainee will be using for the next 7 ½ weeks.

Please prepare yourself mentally for the call, as there is not time to chat and your trainee may seem very stressed or emotional. Rest assured your trainee is just fine. We highly suggest you have a pen and paper ready during this time period. If for whatever reason you do not get the info (maybe it was too loud or bad connection) please do not panic. Your trainee will be mailing home a graduation flyer with their address.
