How do I get my family down to my first duty station? Will someone give me guidance during in processing on how to do this?

While you in process, they should cover that. If not, ask one of the NCOs that work in the Inprocessing Company.

They should indeed give you guidance at in-processing. One of my daughters was married to a guy before he enlisted. She stayed with her mother and me while he went through OSUT at Ft. Leonard Wood. After he graduated he was sent to Ft. Hood. The Army sent a moving truck to pack out my daughter and their infant son. Housing was arranged for him and the movers took everything to Ft. Hood and unpacked them into Post Housing. There was very little effort on the part of my daughter and my son-in-law.

Please get with your Chain of Command ASAP so they can assign you someone to help with all of your questions (that’s what they are there for to help guide you through the process). They can’t assist if you’re not asking them these questions that’s presented here. Good luck to you...

Contact your sponsor. They should be able to guide you through everything. As far as moving, register with move.mil. Also contact on post housing and get that process started. Do you have your orders that list wife and son?

The reception center will have part of your on boarding where you will speak with folks for that. You should also immediately address this with your chain of command and immediate supervisor/NCO so it gets handled quickly
