Newcomer's Orientation is held at the Eglin Enlisted Hall, 1760 Memorial Trail, Eglin AFB, FL 32542.

Childcare for PCS Program
The Childcare for PCS Program is a community enhancement program that pays for 20 hours of childcare per child (ages six months to 12 years) for active-duty AF families within 60 days of PCSing in/out. Care is provided by a licensed Family Child Care (FCC) provider through the installation. If interested, please stop by the M&FRC to obtain a program voucher. The M&FRC is located at 502 W Matre Ave, building 205, Eglin AFB. Hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Sponsor’s Role
Upon notification of your PCS, you should be assigned a sponsor from your gaining unit within 90 days of your RNLTD to assist you with your relocation. The sponsor’s role is to provide the necessary resources pertaining to relocation and to minimize the stress that comes along with PCSing. To request a sponsor, call the gaining unit’s Commander Support Staff or M&FRC at 850-882-9060.
If you get married prior to your PCS, you MUST inform your command and follow procedures exactly as prescribed. The military WILL NOT PAY for the travel and housing expenses of your spouse, if you do not follow proper procedures. Please contact the Traffic Management Office (TMO) / Personal Property Office at 850-882-2127 for questions while in transit.
