He'll be able to buy them at the Navy Exchange or you can mail them to him although he won't be able to wear them for the first few weeks of A school (underwear is an exception). As he moves through the phases of Liberty - he'll be able to go off base and buy them as well. (by then he'll be allowed to wear them)

And you are being moved by the Navy, right? Everything is going to SC in time.

My husband is putting me on his page 2 as his dependent so I'm not sure if he has to specifically put down that I'm moving with him or if since I'm on his page 2, they'll automatically know that I'm moving with him. Like are the rdc's gonna help him with his page 2 and help him with everything that has to be done? Because my husband doesn't know to ask these questions.

The page two has nothing to do with his orders, other than show he has a dependent and who that is.  They most certainly help him, it is part of in-processing.  

Orders to nuke school for married students are accompanied orders.  Your move is authorized, so you can relax about that.  Everything will be taken care of after boot camp, once he checks into school.  RTC has nothing to do with SC, so it is not a priority just yet. Just prep for a move by tossing, donating or selling everything you do not need, getting your vehicle ready for a road trip if you have one, and make a big file of important papers to hand carry.  Don't pack anything though.  Just declutter and organize.  The more you do now, the easier the move is when it happens. 

What do you mean by "orders to nuke school for married students are accompanied order's"? I'm just really confused on how all of this go upon happening. Like does all he have to do is put me on his page 2 and then boot camp will do the rest on notifying nuke school that he will be accompanied by me? Like what's the step by step processing on updating page 2, and getting me on the orders? Can you explain it from start to finish on how everything gets done
