PCSing to Korea (Sponsorship) https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/pcsing-to-korea-sponsorship <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am PCSing to Korea this coming summer, and have no idea about command sponsorship. I have requested a sponser months ago, but still no reply on that, though I have been told it's very hit or miss with that there.<br />I want to know how to complete my packet and my HR seems a lost overall. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I went to the ROK twice, never had a sponsor until I arrived both times. First tour, they had no idea what unit I was to be assigned to, until after the weekend. Second tour, went to 2nd ID, and was at the Turtle Farm for a week before I got my unit assignment. Not sure how much it's changed since then, but, that's what it was like 89-91 and 94-95 SGT Mark Sullivan Thu, 08 Jan 2015 21:16:33 -0500 2015-01-08T21:16:33-05:00 2013-12-12T12:21:39-05:00
