Check-in Procedures
Travel Planning
Reservations for Temporary Lodging can be made up to 5 days in advance. On base resources are listed in the Housing-Temporary category of this booklet. Pets are not allowed in any of the on base sleeping facilities. There are many local vets that house pets. A list of telephone numbers can be obtained from FFSC, your sponsor or the internet.
Hotels and motels located within 5 miles of the base have varied policies about pets. You will need to check their policy prior to arrival if you plan to have your pet stay with you.
Reporting Procedures
All check-ins will report to their respective commands during duty hours. Prior arrival arrangements should be made through the Command Sponsor Coordinator. After hours check-in will be done through Naval Construction Battalion Center quarterdeck, 228-871-2555 or DSN 312-868-2555.
What to do if you Get Married Enroute
