Soldiers separating from the Army are offered transition assistance through the Transition Assistance Program.

The Vilseck Transition assitance Program - Center (TAP - CENTER) serves the Vilseck, Grafenwoehr, Hohenfels and Garmisch communities. The TAP Center is open Monday – Friday, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. The TAP Center is closed on all federal holidays.

The TAP process works best when initiated early. A goal of the Soldier Life Cycle concept is to shift thinking about transition. Currently, transition is thought of as an event that occurs at the end of one's military career; however, the process of planning and preparing throughout a Soldier's Life Cycle ensures Soldiers are better prepared to achieve their post-military goals. Soldiers are encouraged to utilize TAP throughout their careers and to "come early, and come often."
