Recommend you contact an In-Service Retention NCO or Contact HRC Personnel Management Office - Ft Knox,KY. Google and you’ll get POC info

Don’t know about the Army. But there are Air Force IMA’s for Civil Engineers, Red Horse, and Prime Beef in Germany.

How can a reservist find a unit in Germany (fiancé is active duty heading to Germany) |...

I'm a reservist and my finance is full-time. We will be married 2 June of this year. From what I understand, once my fiancé signs his re-enlistment contract we will be moved together. His next duty station is Ramstein, Germany. With me being reserves, I need to know everything I need to do to find a reserve unit and work out there with him. Anyone who has advice, it's appreciated!

Since I'm taking your rank as to you haven't been in the military for that long, The military does not recognize someone being engaged. You are either Single, Married, or Divorced. There are no benefits recognized by the military as an engaged person.

I don't know how to tag people here but SSG Rountree gave a perfect response to someone earlier who asked this question
"The reserves here in Europe doesn't grant you a status in Germany unless she come over on tour of duty on active status for a year or AGR. If she is regular TPU and was to follow you on her own, she would have to find a unit hopefully prior to coming, then find a job either with the Americans on base or German economy, plus find a place to live. As mentioned above, being a regular TPU Soldier doesn't grant you a status, she would be on tourist status. She will have a 90 day window starting from the time the passport get stamped at airport to find a job to be in Germany legally."

Good morning PFC Hanson, how are you doing today? I don't recall seeing an engineer company in the reserves here in Germany...... They may have a small detachment, but most units are CA, HR, medics, Logistics....... Since phone numbers and emails constantly change, you might want to Google 7th MSC in Germany to find contacts to retention or have the recruiter there make a phone call or email for you....... The worst case is that you may have to reclass to different MOS...
