Can you bring your cell phone with you to your Marine MOS school ?

Question

Are you allowed to have a cell phone in marine MOS school, or do they allow you to make only phone calls there or something in order to make contact ? or is just like letters in boot camp ?

Answer 1

Just make sure not to use it at inappropriate times. They will Jump down your throat on that. (Reminds me of a retirement ceremony for a MG. During one of the long winded speeches the Chaplains Cell went off. That was a riot.)  

Answer 2

You can bring it, but you will have limited times where you can use it. Generally... Only on the weekends and when you're in civies.

Answer 3

Yes you can bring it but turn the ringer off.  It is okay that it rings but your SNCO Instructor is going to tell you as a Marine, turn it off.  Just a heads up.  They won't be demeaning to you, you earned your title!  But you have to apply common sense, right?

Answer 4

naw you can bring it, what school are you going too? I know when i went through SOI we werent allowed to take them out except for weekend, but  yea

Answer 5

MOS school...you aren't in the Fleet yet, but it's like a 9-5 job, only it's from 0500-1630. After that, you're on your own. You can't have a car and you can only leave the area on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (Sunday has a curfew, though), but you can order in if you want, go to the gym, go to the rec center and play games/use a computer/have a beer, you can also buy yourself a portable DVD player or laptop and watch a lot of movies.
