No, if his flight is continuing on he wont have to go through customs/immigration. He will when he gets to Guam.

Charlotte - Thanks for all of the good info. I am sure we will skype and I will check out the apps. I am sure he will have an issue with the weather too. We are from Indiana and he loves the change of the seasons. He is excited to learn to scuba dive and he loves to golf. So, I am sure he will enjoy it there for a while any way. He is suppose to be there for 4 years. So, I am sure he will get bored eventually. I am excited for him, but sad he will be that far away for so long.
However, I have started a "VISIT GUAM" account to go visit him some time. Right now, just cant wait to see him in 30 days before he goes. Thanks again!:)

Hi MustangMom.....my son has been in Guam since Dec. 3. He is really enjoying himself. He snorkels, golfs and just got Scuba certified! He had to get a new Iphone when he got to Guam. I forget the name of the Guam cellphone company (lovinmatt knows). We never call each other because we have an app on our iphones called Voxer. It is like a walkie talkie/text messaging app that is free! There is also one called Viber which is free calling. Both apps were free to download. We skype once a week then just text or voice message during the rest of the week. My son is not thrilled with the weather. Always warm and humid. We live in the desert of AZ and he is not used to humidity. My son will be in Guam until April of '15. His rate is IT what is your sons rate? Frank Cable is still in dry dock. I think your son will enjoy himself! :)

Hello everyone...I am new to this web-site. My son is going to be stationed in
Guam and will be flying out May 31 assigned to the Frank Cable. He is in Norfolk now in C School. Will be coming home May 8 for 21 days before he leaves.
So, I am getting very anxious to see him but reallly apprehensive about him going to GUAM for 4 years. So, I am trying to learn everything I can about Guam. So, any information or web-sites you can pass this way, I would appreciate it. Is the Frank Cable still in dry dock? What cell phone service
is available there?
