Getting Ready for Basic

Well, we got the call. The order that Phil has to go to basic training January 25th. I'm still learning all the lingo, so bear with me. Don't worry, I'll be updating as we go along to try and help those stranded out there. And who knows, maybe you guys will end up helping me too!
Phil's just an Army Reservist for right now, but because he is prior service Air Force the new law that came out requires him to go back to basic training. I'm not too happy about it, but I guess the pay is pretty good and its only for *ahem* "9 weeks and 4 days". Which isn't as bad as tech school which is supposed to be 6 long months.
We will get seperation pay, BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing), and the base pay. All of this is dependent upon where you live and what your rank is. While he is away we will also get Active Duty medical insurance, or the Cadillac insurance as I like to call it. So I can finally afford those fake boobs I've always wanted! Just kidding....
