View Full Version : We got orders to.... CA
NewBeginnings 09-15-2007, 12:46 PM We are still waiting on his actual paper orders but we are going to CA. He re-enlisted on September 4th for 3 years. We have to finish a year of sea duty on a frigate (have no idea what that is other then a really small ship with maybe 200 people on it). Then he is doing 2 years of shore duty in his new rate (ENFN) as a FTS (Full Time Support) personell.

We should be to CA around January or February. I'm thinking more then likely its San Diego cause he has to do a year of sea duty still before he can go to his shore command.

how neat!! We'll i'll hopefully be there shortly after you!! Have you looked at the housing? I'm leaning toward going on the NTC village housing list. Is your hubby on a ship or sub?

He's on a LSD (dock landing ship) right now that is currently deployed. They should be back this winter. I've been looking at housing and have it narrowed down I just can't decide. My only stipulation with housing is it has to have washer/dryer hook-ups cause we have a brand new full size washer and dryer. Well they are 2 years old but my mom bought them. If I get rid of them she'd shoot me, lol.

I see! What housing area's are you thinking about? I've notice most housing have a waiting list.. which totally sucks lol!

Yes, we wanted to go to CA. He was to the point he didn't care if they gave him shore command on Mars he was going to take it. But we have a year of sea duty we will have to finish before we do our shore. I'm sure everything will go okay. I'm just happy to be off the east coast.
MelissaMc424 09-16-2007, 01:37 PM Congrats on the orders. We're out here, and San Diego's pretty nice, aside from being expensive.
We're in Lofgren Terrace and love it.
