AFFam

OK, so I just got my information regarding the graduation activities and I was wondering why will be done about children. My daughter doesn't know any of my family so I can't leave her with them for extended periods of time. However, I do not want ...

Actually my husband is the one at COT and I am trying to go to Dining Out with him.

I'm not going but I'm anxious because this is the first time my husband and I have been apart for more than a few days. I guess it will give me a taste of what deployment will be like. Luckily the moving company called, and we will be able to move ...

Switching focus back to ribbons and such...can i wear my stuff at COT, I didn't find a specific reg in the "36's" as follows: USMC Good con w/star, korean defense service medal, Nat. Def Service medal, Sea Service deployment, Meritorious Unit Comme...

Yay for progress!! We got the form faxed to our recruiter yesterday, and she supposedly turned it over to AF personnel. (We will be following up on Friday if we don't hear anything by then.) We also got military ids and added me and our daughter to...

I'll be sure to pass that along. We are going to get ids and Power of Attorney paperwork done tomorrow. We also plan to purchase most of his uniforms.

He called AF personnel. The number is the email response we got is 210-565-2773. The recruiter was a little perturbed that he called then, just so you have a heads up.

They are holding his orders because a Form is missing....UGH!!!! Had he not called we never would have know. His recruiter was just twiddling her thumbs waiting. A little follow-through never hurt anybody!

What does is the graduation on and do you have any hotel recommendations?

Can we get on base to buy DH's uniforms without his orders? He wants to go on the 21st, but we aren't sure we will have them by then.

The guy I talked to at base legal said he needed his id. Maybe he was confused. Hopefully we will hear something between now and the 21st. My fingers are crossed. :)

Can he also get his military id that day because we need to get PoA paperwork completed?

Cool Thanks!

Has anyone gotten their orders yet? Hurry up and wait...I hate it! :)

My husband commissioned on the 6th so I was just checking. Hopefully you will hear something soon.

Ok, so we are trying to decide whether I will go to work full-time or part-time once my husband completes NTP. I was wondering if his nursing schedule in the Air Force will be similar to his civilian schedule. Currently his schedule goes out 6 week...

Has anyone been lucky enough to receive their orders yet? :)

I'll look into lifelock. Thanks for the recommendation. I hope he gets his orders soon. I'm itching to turn in my notice, but don't want to jump the gun in case things change.

Do you qualify for BAH during COT and NTP? If so, how do they determine how much since you will be in Montgomery for COT and NTP may be somewhere other than your permanent duty station?

Thanks for the idea. We have got to start making copies of everything. Do you need certified true copies?

Mobro I PMed you.

No, he hasn't been assigned a sponsor. He commissioned on the 6th but he had to resign some paperwork last week, so I'm not sure if his recruiter has even sent his information off yet. He is going Med-Surg, so you give me hope for some sort of regu...

He is going to be stationed at Keesler. That is one of the reason we were thinking about me staying at home until we are done having kids. Currently there aren't any jobs available in my field in the area, so we don't want to incur daycare cost if...

Ugh, ok. How far in advance are you notified of the meetings? I am looking at a variety of part time positions and work at home spots so hopefully something will fit. He has been working nights and weekends for the past 4 months so I'm use to that ...

Well, my daughter and I will be living with my aunt in Gautier, MS until my husband reports to Keesler. What would we need to do to make sure we get BAH? Should I work up a short term lease with her to turn in to the Finance Office?
