PLAN YOUR MOVE:

• This workshop is a mandatory for all Marines executing a Permanent Change of Station (PCS) from MCAS Cherry Point. Marines are required to attend no later than 90 days prior to their departure date. Information on travel and pay entitlements, shipping personal property, and helpful moving-related resources will be provided. Spouses are encouraged to attend.

LENDING LOCKER:

• This program allows service members, family members, and DoD civilians to borrow basic household items for a period of up to thirty days while they await the arrival of their household goods. This service is free and available for both inbound and outbound personnel assigned to MCAS Cherry Point. You must provide the Relocation Office with a copy of your PCS orders and a valid active duty military, family member, or DoD civilian identification card.

SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM:

• First time PCSing? Going overseas or to a special duty?  If so, you will want a sponsor.  A sponsor is a Marine from your new duty station, who will be assigned to you to assist with preparing you (and your family) ready for your new duty assignment and to assist you with settling in upon arrival at your new duty station.  A sponsor is normally a Marine of equal rank, with the same family status from your gaining command.  A sponsor adds that personal touch while providing you with “boots on the ground” information about your new duty assignment and new unit.  They will be your POC as you prepare to arrive to your gaining command. Download the NAVMC 11799 Sponsor Request Form and turn it in to your Unit Sponsorship Coordinator (USC) or email the form to the Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point Information and Referral office at OMB.PPD@usmc-mccs.org
