I'd say 2-3 weeks. The first few weeks the recruits are getting through receiving, getting shots, medical, dental.. all that stuff is taken care of first. But, the recruits are given time every evening to write letters, shine their brass, study..etc. It won't be until their actual training starts they'll be settled in enough to write friends.

It's not like they have a lot of free-time in Marine Boot. Don't be surprised if you don't get any letters for a couple weeks. he's busy, I assure you.
