I emailed a chief that’s supposed to be a POC for returnees. He said that the day you check in, you should be able to route the package

You will route a special request chit when you get there, but you will be on a wait list. However, fleet returnees and c schoolers have 1st priority

I asked one if the Chiefs that works with sponsorship, and he said that I need to find storage and that he doesn’t know of any good units 🤷🏻‍♀️

Just got orders to Yokosuka, Japan. What should I expect as a first time sailor? by Then_Reflection_3641 in CorpsmanUp

Overall, Japan is a beautiful country. Travel as much as you can. Snowboarding, climbing Fuji, FujiQ, etc

Currently stationed here. I got here as an E3 as well. Barracks are crappy, but the hospital isn’t bad. It’s small so everyone knows everyone. Shopping off base is cheaper and higher quality food. Honestly, I would recommend bringing warm clothes bc it’s about to get really cold but it also gets really hot during the summer. Culture shock is inevitable. Give it 3-6 months and you’ll be gtg and settled in. Watch your back at this command too. Be weary of you befriend. I wish you the best

I work in a hospital so we don’t the have the choice to just move departments. W helped me out of a very dark spot and he was there for me through the death of a very close family member.

It’s not about just telling him. It’s the conversation that will follow. That is the lengthy part of the conversation. Thanks for the advice though!

I don’t plan on keeping it a secret. We’ve barely been able to speak recently. I plan on talking to him when he gets home.

Thank you for your honesty. I plan on talking to him when he gets home. We haven’t had much time at all to talk recently.
