You may send a pre-paid credit card (like a VISA gift card), if necessary. While not against policy, your Trainee will have to record the serial number of each bill in their possession and who wants to do that? They are extremely busy and any free time should be spent reading your letters! If a personal debit card was taken to BMT, please add money to the account instead of sending cash. Save those types of cards for Tech School. This NOT a BMT policy, however your Trainee could possibly receive ‘extra attention’. Do NOT send cards sprayed with perfume, cards with glitter, confetti, or musical cards.AFWM works hard to provide you with a closed group, so you can speak freely to each other, please do not betray your Wing Family’s trust. This is your space to connect and support each other. Do NOT print comments/posts from the AFWM discussion groups to send your Trainee.Your Trainee will have to open the package in front of the TI, so keep this business only. When sending a package (requested from your Trainee) only send the item(s) requested. Do NOT send a package to your Trainee (unless they asked you to send something specific since BMT arrival).Sending any consumable can create hardship for your Trainee. Do NOT send food, candy, gum or other consumable items.Then you will know exactly when to do that mailbox dash … the one that ends with happy smiles and happy tears! For more information on how that works, click HERE. When a letter from your trainee is on the way, you will get an email with a picture of your letter from the Postal Service. If you want to avoid the “mailbox dash” that can end in a bummer, consider signing up for USPS Informed Delivery. Once they settle into the BMT groove, then most will start writing back. Keep in mind that first letter might just be the graduation info postcard, which rarely comes with anything handwritten from the trainee (other than the address on the envelope). Your trainee will write when he/she can, but usually letters from them start arriving around week 2 or 3. Here are 2 examples of what the address format looks like: Your Trainee will send a graduation flyer with the BMT address to one person. Don’t fret if your Trainee omits the address, BMT has a back-up plan. Remember, your Trainee is starting a life-long transformation, and this will likely be a stressful and confusing moment. Calls can come at any time, so be prepared. Sometimes, your trainees will have permission to text a picture of their address. Your Trainee should get one scripted phone call (within 72 hours of arrival) with their address. Mail is what keeps them going, keeps them connected to the ‘real’ world, reminds them you care and haven’t forgotten about them. One thing all Trainees have in common, they want to hear their name. Mail Call is every duty day, Monday – Friday (no mail on holidays). Our mission is to encourage you to Write Your Trainee… every day! We will provide tips with positive encouragement and support you to Write Your Trainee. Welcome to AFWM’s Writing Your Trainee topic!
