Reporting Procedures
Newly assigned members arriving during normal duty hours are required to report to their unit admin section first to receive their unit's in-processing checklist and Duty Information Worksheet. Newcomers must also attend the Military Personnel in-processing on the first day they arrive. The in-processing is held at 1:30 p.m. every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday in building 3010 and will last approximately 1 hour. You must bring your sealed packet from your last base, completed Permissive TDY paperwork (AF Form 988), BAS Form (AF Form 220), and Duty Information Worksheet to this appointment. Your unit admin section should be able to assist you with obtaining these forms.
Important Documents/Hand Carry
Be as prepared as you possibly can by making sure you have all your important papers with you (orders, ID cards, passports, power of attorney, resumes, transcripts, traveler's checks, etc) - Do not pack them in your household goods.
First Term Airmen
All Airmen E-1 thru E-4 with < 3 years of service MUST report to the Airman Dormitory Leaders' Office upon arrival on station. All first duty station Airmen will be scheduled to attend the First Term Airmen Center (FTAC) within 30 days of arrival on station. Airmen are scheduled for FTAC by Military Personnel Element (MPE) after signing into the base. Full service dress is the required for the first day of FTAC. All Airmen scheduled for FTAC must have computer access prior to arrival. Airmen do not have to wait until attending FTAC to receive the Finance briefing and file travel vouchers. This briefing is offered every Monday at 10:00 a.m. at the Finance office (Building 3612); take a copy of orders and any receipts.
Temporary Lodging Reservations
The Southern Pines Inn has 161 temporary lodging rooms, 69 of which are designed to accommodate families. The facilities consist of 1 and 2 bedroom units and offer designated handicap rooms. A limited number of pet friendly rooms are available (please see the "Pet Friendly Policies and Procedures" flyer in your sponsor package). We highly encourage guests to make lodging arrangements well in advance, to ensure availability, by calling 919-722-0385 or DSN 312-722-0385. Lodging will place a guarantee hold on rooms secured with a credit card until 24:00 on the reserved date. Therefore, it's very important to update reservations if your travel plans should change. If you are married and arrive after duty hours and you do or do not have temporary lodging reservations, report to the Southern Pines Lodging Office, 1235 Wright Brothers Avenue. Lodging will help arrange temporary lodging either on base, if available, or off base in a contract hotel. If arrival is after duty hours and you are single E-1 thru E-4<3 yrs service, and your sponsor did not meet you, Lodging will make every effort to locate your sponsor or first sergeant. If that fails, they will contact the CE Service Desk, (919) 711-5139 so a Airman Dormitory Leader (ADL) can be contacted. The ADL will take you to a dormitory hospitality room until your permanent dorm room is ready for assignment (usually the next duty day). Become a ADL facebook friend and learn about the latest information concerning the dormitory campus.
Getting Married Enroute
If you get married before you PCS, you must inform your commander and follow the procedures exactly as you are given them. The military will not pay for travel and housing of your spouse if you do not follow proper procedures.
