My father went to Fort Niagria Youngstown,NY this was a Reception Center he also went to Camp Pickett, Virginia for his basic training as a medic. My question is how long did a new recruit stay at a Reception Center and how long for a medics basic training?
I can't answer your question, but you might look here for some answers About Us | WW2 US Medical Research Centre
I was 11b infantry in the Army(modern day), I can give details but need more information. What years? do you know exact mos? Typically reception is at the same place you will go through basic. Like when I went to Fort Benning reception was at the same place, how long we stayed was up to the classes before us then we went down range to train. same place.
Everything that I have read is that no more then 24 hrs at the induction center around two weeks at the reception center and for Medical Basic training five months
