Can anyone help me with details on the 3D Infantry Regiment for my upcoming PCS move?

I am leaving the trail in May. Branch says I will probably be there in July. I need info on the unit. Where should I try to go? Where should I live. I want to separate myself from my peers. I know the Time is a distinguished position. I am a blank page that needs knowledge!

With your Drill Sergeant experience, you should do well in your assignment as a Tomb Guard. Continue to set the example and enforce the standards. Congrats and the best of luck to you.

If you think you know Drill and Ceremony now, just wait. It tends to be different and more precise. YouTube some videos of the tomb guard and cassion ceremonies. I hope you can meet the physical requirements. My waist size was too big for them, however I'm not a big fella. It's going to be a helluva ride for you, congrats and best of luck!

I can't help you with the assignment-specific stuff, but since I do live in the area, I can help you with off-post knowledge. You'll be assigned to Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall in Arlington VA.

The best way to start is to go online and google the Washington, D.C. area in general, and 3dInf.Reg. specifically because there will be an address like 3DInfReg.com or something like that. Branch should have an updated web address for your gaining unit, and it would be a good idea to take a few days leave to check out the area, and go onpost to check out your new unit. Best of luck!

Quite a unit. The only smirch on their record I think of is the 4/3rd unpleasantness at My Lai in RVN. Had the pleasure of having the 2/3rd serve in the 199th with me. Thought the O's unicorn hats were neat.
