Hello everyone! My son is going to Guam late next week. He just finished A School and is home visiting with us now :-) I have a question about cell phone usage. Should he cancel the phone service he has now and get new service in Guam? Is it considered calling internationally when calling Guam or when calling from Guam to the US (since Guam is a US territory)?

My son is going to Guam in May also. He is excited and our Navy friends tell us it's one of the better places to serve. It Is very far away so we are hoping to be able to afford meeting him in Hawaii next year.

Talked to josh this morning and he said he can keep his Ohio tags. Did say there,s a "run around" so your son will have to have someone drive him there. There is an inspection with a small fee too. He seems satisfied there and has almost a month in!

Anita B.- Was your sons Jeep registered in another state before it landed in Guam? My sons Jeep will have FL tags on it so will they make him change his FL tags before he picks it up?

Josh is an ET. He found out today that the jeep has to be registered before picking it up. He had already turned his rental car in before going to pick up the jeep. Then he has to have it inspected before driving. Guess it's live and learn. He had to have someone from his work place drive him around. He's been doing a LOT of walking before getting the rental.

Yes my son is on the sub-USS Oklahoma City-He got to Guam on Feb 18th.
Yes...He loves it! I bet he does. Saving to go visit but it's hard to tell when he will be there.
Anita B.-What does your son do in Guam?
-

My son went to Guam March first. He shipped his Jeep Feb 19 and was notified he can pick it up on base in the morning. He has obtained an apartment off base since barracks are for those on a ship...he didn't know this beforehand so was unprepared for an apartment off base. Is your son on a ship?

I mail to my daughter and son-in-law all the time. He is also on the Cable. I send directly to their house on base and don't have any trouble. Best value seems to be the priority mail flat rate boxes. They take about a week to arrive.
