Does anyone know what AIT for 15W is like at Ft. Huachuca? In particular, is it likely to be allowed to visit family in Tucson on weekends after getting to Phase V?
I ask because I know there’s often restrictions on how far you can go on pass, and Tucson is 75 miles away.

As of June 2014, per post commanders guidance, weekend/over night passes are no longer authorized. After all of this COVID non-sense ends, you will be allowed to leave post when you get to Phase V but must return prior to bed check which is usually 9 or 10pm.

Now the explanation to this is because of an incident that occurred with the 35F AIT in which certain individuals were granted a pass and booked a hotel room just off post, threw a party, alcohol was involved, couches on fire were thrown out windows. It was just an overall bad time for the post. That was 3 cycles prior to mine.

On 06 JUL 2014, a male soldier attending the 15W AIT decided it would be a good idea to attempt to repel from the 3rd floor of the barracks down to the first using bed sheets to try and sneak into a females room. Bed sheets came apart and he fell, shattering his pelvis and forcing a 100% health and well fare in the middle of the night with 15 individuals popping hot on urinalysis.

Thank your peers for acting stupid.

It's just as well. When I was there it cost $30 (round trip) to get to the off post shopping area with a Walmart. What a waste of $30. I never left post again, stayed local and walked everywhere.

Currently in AIT for 15W at Huachuca. As of right now we are not allowed to leave post on weekends per command.
