Sick hours are granted in advance. You get 6 sick hours to your RSA, regular sick account, starting from basic Indoc. A month counts if you started BI before the 15th. For example, you start March 10th...you have March as a counter for sick and vacation. You would get 60 RSA hours and earn a full year of vacation under the CBA procedures.
The CBA calls for second year pay based on month you started basic Indoc, not from activation. You get training pay until activation and first year pay after activation.
Activation is when you finish your LOE which is your line flying eval, not your sim eval.
Just one item to clarify: you earn vacation during your first CALENDAR year which you can then take during the next CALENDAR year (e.g. Hired Jul of 2016 gets you 9 days of vacation in 2017). Vacation earned in 2017 is used in 2018, and so on and so on.
