I'm currently PCSing from Fort Bliss, to Fort Benning. My orders do not specify whether early reporting is authorized or not. Will I be able to report to the post a day prior to my report date?

In 1980 I drove down to Fort Benning and arrived a little early CPL (Join to see). When I reported early I went about getting a place to stay, etc.
I would call Fort Benning switchboard operator and ask for help. Check out the Fort Benning Newcomers page.

I'd suggest contact your unit sponsor. You should have one, it's a program our CG is really pushy for post. What unit you moving to?

I reported here early to my unit and didn't face any issues with base inprocessing or unit, but I wouldn't suggest just doing it blindly.

I was never contacted by a unit level or even post level sponsor, so I've been relatively clueless as to what I should expect when I report. My orders don't specify a clear unit that I'm going to. USAIS AG REPL DET ENL is what my orders state I'll be assigned to.

CPL (Join to see) It should say on your orders if early reporting is authorized.

This is absolutely correct. You should always read your orders when you receive them and ask questions if you don't understand something on the orders.
