My son will be on his way there soon. How can they force them into civilian housing? I thought they had to provide housing? Unless you volunteered to live in civilian housing....

My son has been in guam since March 1st. He had a rental representative show him some apartments and decided on The Towers. A car is necessary since it's 15 min from base.

Hi Guam Moms. Today is my first day on this group. I'm coming from last years group Kids in Afghanistan/Iraq. My son's been stateside 10 months and getting ready to be in Guam. I've got my listening ears on and just been listening in lately til it was confirmed before I join and so far it sounds like. Guam is tropical paradise, a small island about 25 miles, surrounded by water and green, nothing like Afhanistan thank God. I'm still transitioning my mind from that deployment and so is my son. It was a hard one. He is a Seabee and I'm just curious what they do in Guam. Are they a presence there. Is there any concerns over there or is this just a base that's a presence? This is our second deployment. I say our because he is in but we are supporting him throughout his service. You know what I mean.

I asked that same question. I found out that it is better to get one there. Kinda easy to come by. They call them Guam Bombs! Passed from one sailor to the next. The weather is very hard on cars over there, so if your sailor likes there car just leave it here!

Hi, all does anyone know the steps to ship my son's car overseas? Also is a car really needed there since the island is so small?
Thanks

My son enjoys it most of the time. He is getting a little island fever. When he was home on leave in Dec he got back together with his girlfriend so that is making him very home sick right now but she is going to visit him in July so hopefully that will help. He has been able to visit some great places. Hong Kong, Philippines, Mylasia and Indonesia. He said he asked around about getting a military flight and they said no. Who 'they' are, I have no idea. He sure is saving money on that island. He just advanced to E5 and still living in the barracks so he is able to save a lot. Which is great!

Is there any chance of them getting a military transport flight from Guam to VA beach or Charleston? I know that is how most of them get there.
