<p>My sailor will be moving off base. The place is about 15 minutes from base. Does anyone have any tips on where to buy used furniture? And how to physically move items from base to the new place (like moving companies, etc.)? I want to help him out but I have no clue where to start! </p>

<p>My son has been on shore duty over 2 1/12 years now. He has been trying to get orders since April, but everything he picks, is denied. Now it has been 3 months and they are saying he is "Needs of the Navy" meaning they will pick his orders? He has only been in 3 years, so this is our first time picking orders (my husband and I were both in the navy, but things have changed in 20 years!) </p>
<p>Has this happened to anyone else?</p>

My 20 year old daughter has been in Japan stationed for about one year. She is struggling and i believe she maybe seeking a discharge. Is there someone i can talk to there to make sure she is getting the guidance she needs?

<p>Hey everyone. My son is on the Shiloh CG-67. I talked to him last probably 2 weeks ago on facebook. Then had not heard anything until a few days ago (not through facebook though). He sent me an e-mail saying he needed to talk to me before they went underway. I didnt know they were going underway and not sure how long or where. Anyway, I really needed to talk to him to about some important things. Does anyone have any rough idea how long they will be gone? Not asking for any exact dates…</p>

<p>Hi, My son is on the base there in Yokosuka. He has just started looking at housing off the base. Can anyone give me an estimate as to how much money he is looking at for this (in American dollars), including any extra fees, insurances, security deposits, etc. He is single and needing only a 1 bedroom. Also assuming they are even more expensive the closer they are to the base. New at all this so any info appreciated.</p>

Hi Ladies,<br />
<br />
My son's B day is upcoming. He is out to sea and not sure when he is due back. Can I send him a small package with treats in it to share? Even if he is out at sea or can I only send a card?<br />
<br />
Thanks

Hi. Should he bring a laptop? He comes home for Christmas from A school then he goes to Yoko. Will the ship be there or does he go meet it somewhere?<br />
<br />
I'm confused!

<p>I am new here and still learning about this site so forgive me if I am asking for duplicate information. My daughter leaves tomorrow night for 3 years in Japan stationed on the George Washingtion. I was wondering about how to keep in contact. Will they have cell phone and internet service? How about mail? She knows she will have to get a different cell phone service when she gets there but what do I need to do for my cell phone. We have skype already but I do not know about internet…</p>
