Temporary lodging reservations should be made well in advance. Temporary lodging is not available at this installation. Several hotels are within a three mile radius and offer military government discount. It is extremely important that every military member get command approval for concurrent travel. At this installation lodging is not available. Families are required to use local hotels/motels. This is a big expense to those not prepared.

House hunting trips are encouraged. This allows not only the opportunity to visualize what the new area offers but it also familiarizes schools with school age children. Checking out the different schools in the area ahead of time will give you more time for decision making and planning. Obtaining a sponsor is a great advantage to a smooth move. This sponsor can guide you through the actual in-processing for your unit.
