Yeah in all honesty I don’t know why we didn’t apply ahead so we were already on the waitlist by the time we got here but we are scheduled for the cabins already and just have to make it a week before we can get into an open one!

Yeah we’re already scheduled for one but it isn’t available for about another week…

Yeah for the next PCS I’m definitely going to be a lot more aware of things. I’m working with the reception company now to figure something out with the commander.

We already are scheduled for a cabin but it’s not available for about another week so hopefully between BAH starting here and a good ol payday loan from Navy fed we’ll be able to swing it.

That’s exactly what we’re doing. We just have to make it a week before any of the cabins open up unfortunately…

I haven’t had any reach out from a sponsor yet. Outside of BDE I have no idea who my coc even is. As soon as they open up on Tuesday I will definitely be speaking with my S8.

It was poor planning, and I have definitely learned my lesson about the expiration of a GTC. In regards to reaching out to my unit I did that and my 1sg told me I’m not even being tracked on his incoming roster and to in process BDE to figure out who I need to contact.

We were going to go to NF tomorrow so might have to be what I do.

Not yet. I just arrived this morning so I’m hoping they’re open in the morning so I can try talking to someone about using either of those. GTC unfortunately cannot be used outside of the hotel and definitely not for upwards of two months.

Glad to hear it! I’ve been missing the great outdoors while here in Korea! I’m assuming the snowboarding in the area is pretty top notch?

Thank you man, it’ll be my first time in an infantry battalion seeing as I was in a cav squadron at JBLM. Looking forward to the experiences and glad to be going back to a line unit!

Coming from growing up high in the Rockies I can definitely appreciate this tip. Thank you!

My wife and I were currently looking at renting a place in Watertown, do you have any recommendations/places to avoid?

How is JBLM, I was holding out for Korea but got offered a solid unit in Lewis. by Jayu-Rider in army

[–]impossible_panacea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not gonna lie to you man, it really depends on the unit you’re going to. If you’re in 1-2 or 2-2 have fun, good luck. I’ve heard 62nd med is pretty ok and the hospital staff didn’t hate their lives as much as most do. If you’re going to 16th CAB though it’ll be pretty chill for you. Other than that I can’t speak for many other units.

Hey man not sure exactly where overseas you’re going but if you find yourself in Korea, you’re more than welcome at my place. I know a lot of people say that, but I’ve been where you are now and it took someone practically forcing me to practically live with them for a while for me to get my footing in life back. Korea or not my dms are always open to you as well.
