1) The weekend after Airborne, yes. Any other weekend, there is an accountability formation in the morning and at night every day.

2) Yes. And if you get it during Airborne, you get to drive to RIP.

You can have your cell phone and are allowed to use it outside the barracks at night. The address for RIP is posted on the CQ board in the holdover barracks.

This is a follow-up to the question about family contact...

My class is not allowed to use cell phones until we are released on the weekends instead of every night like I originally posted.

Much thanks for the help, paratrooper.
Nope, you don't need them.

The packing list is at the top of the About RIP section. That's all you need.

Just go to RIP and do as you are told! all these questions make me wonder if you really want to go.
