Hello everyone. I am an Army SSG currently on assignment orders to korea (no physical orders as of yet). I report Oct 12 2015. My 2 questions are: "When it comes to entitlements, what all would I receive? (BAS/BAH/FSA/COLA, etc.?) Last time I did a tour in Korea I was single and living in the barracks as a young SGT and now I am a senior SSG with 3 kids and my wife. A more specific question I had is focused on BAH. "Would I get BAH for the current duty station I am at now if my family stays where we are at? Or do we get BAH according to where we lay our head down at night? We live 86 miles away from our current duty station because that is where we are from originally. Thanks for the feedback if you give me some insight! Thanks!

So yeah I'm headed to Korea in Jan 2017 and was wondering what happened on your account. I'm guessing as a SSG you were set up in BEQ for married Junior NCOs and you should have received BAH for where ever you lease was to (closet Military base), fam sep, save pay, COLA around $20 a day (maybe)... can you assist me, as I'm in a similar situation and I don't know how they are treating people with pushing everyone on Humphries.
Another general question for everyone is I didn't accept my HAP assignment to Fort Bliss (no thanks to whomever I pissed off {Preyer} for that. So my wife wants to move to Dallas to be with family. Do I get PTDY to do that? I would get some if I was reporting to a stateside location with family or single. It's not my doing, so why do I need to burn leave days to find her a place there, since we're selling our house here?
