1. If he took your phone then you probably were out of line at the time. 2. Several phones in a box, box lost- maybe they just don't want you to have your phone back right now. 3. Do you have a locator app on it?. 4. Ask the NCO to either return the phone or verify that it is still secure. If he can't do that, THEN report it to a higher NCO in your chain for action.

Yes we are aloud to have them, but if you’re in then at the wrong times they will take them for a night or so. So they took it a rn is can’t seem to find it.

Ok, I would double check with the NCO and see if it can be located. If it cannot be located after a reasonable amount of time then I would do like the other NCO already commented: utilize the unit open door policy.

Turn them in. It's probably not the first time. When I first arrived at boot camp, a receiving Drill Instructor was busted for stealing and selling recruits' personal effects, shoes specifically.

during my first company command, I had to fire (and prosecute) my 1SG for doing the same thing. He was stealing items from the barracks (and the company area. dude even stole a riding lawn mower from the maintenance shed) and selling them at the local pawn shop.

the worst part is that, in addition to being a thief, he was a dumbass. He was selling the stuff he stole at the pawn shop right outside the main gate. He got caught when several of the soldiers saw their "missing" items for sale in the shop.
