MILITARY PCS ADVOCATE

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

The last year was a rough year. We raised concerns. We showed the problems. And then the GAO validated everything. I am optimistic that this new PPA will provide the proper oversight and accountability that is so deeply needed.
Thank you @SecWar for hearing the concerns and taking action.

PCS was broken—We fixed it.

We listened to warfighters, removed failed leadership, and built a permanent solution.

Introducing - Ask the PCS Pro!

It’s taken a little time to build, but I have a created a PCS GPT!

We know going down the Google rabbit hole isn’t the best thing and often times we find out dated regulations or don’t understand what the policy means. Ask the PCS Pro GPT will help simplify all the confusion!

Help make a checklist and timeline
Help with budget planning
Help finding the regulation you need and understanding it
Help breaking down the process

The perfect tool to make your next PCS as simple as possible!

Supporting Tours Across Years (STAY) Act

While the Pentagon has asked the services to review reducing PCS’s by 50% by 2030, this act will require a comprehensive review of the PCS frequency.

The bill requires:

- Analyze PCS and sea–shore rotation costs and the potential savings of reducing move frequency;

- Assess the impacts of frequent PCS moves on retention, spouse employment, and children’s education;

- Identify billets and duty stations where longer tours would be feasible without harming readiness or career progression;

- Recommend any legislative or policy changes needed to pilot or implement longer tour lengths.

In 2026, PCS Like A Pro is taking its sought after PCS class on the road!

Are you interested in being a sponsor?
Fill out the interest form below!

How is this class different than what the Transportstion Offices or Commynity Service Office provides?

This class gives families the information they truly need to know! Everything from understanding their entitlements and the importance of budget planning, understanding their options in the different types of moves, breaking down the regulations families need to know, best practices, and how to navigate the claims process with ease!

Because 2025 is the year.

Currently only applies to Army (as the FRAGO and communication has been Army), but we will assume that it will soon apply across the board in some fashion.

Army Soldiers who cannot transition out of the Army due to separation orders not being issued due to the government shut down will be put in stop loss and extended 45 days under needs of the Army.

As of this time, the only FY26 orders that are being allowed to be issued and proceed are those tied to accessions and recruiting.

As we have more information we will share it.

The Highlights:
- The DP3 Tender of Service program will continue for at least 3 years
- Modernize DP3 systems into government-controlled software solutions
- Complete market study by research economists of commercial moving and storage rates
- The JTF will remain until NLT 31 Aug 26 or until a permanent follow-on organization is created
- Services, Transcom and related offices will immediately implement any guidance and execute any taskings issued by JTF relative to the DP3 program
- NLT 15 December 25, JTF will provide a more detailed assessment of the options for a follow-on organization to the JTF

*PUBLISHED TODAY*
USTRANSCOM Personal Property Advisory #26-0007

@SecWar We would like to be considered as a member for the permanent follow-on organization that replaces the JTF.

Update - FRAGO 3 of EXORD 001-26 (Stop Move)

BLUF- PCS Orders issued FY25 with exception to shipments that required NTS will continue but not suspended..

This comes directly from SGM Ruben Murillo
Senior Enlisted Advisor, Directorate of Prevention, Resilience & Readiness HQ G1

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

@SecWar this is the impact of the #GovernmentShutdown coupled with the @USArmy’s #StopMoveOrder

https://t.co/4GShrXb2BM

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

Want to know the impact of the sudden Army Stop Move Order? It’s not pretty. Families are scrambling with added financial stress that could be alleviated by just letting their in-progress move continue.

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

@SecWar - this is the situation the Army Stop Move order is putting families in. Many have shipped their HHGs, cleared housing and being told to stay longer in lodging they cannot afford without their paycheck next week. Let them move.

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

@SecWar - Army issues stop movement order that is impacting service families who have already had their HHGs picked up and have already cleared housing. It wasn’t until they went to sign out of installation that they were told they couldn’t leave. They are now scrambling.

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

@SecWar Families have had their HHGs picked up, and have cleared housing only to be told when doing their final out from post that they cannot continue due to the Army’s stop movement order. What are these families with no HHGs and no housing suppose to do?

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

@GAO Released their report for GHC today. It fully validates everything we shared, pushed back on and what families experienced. @SecWar there needs to be actionable accountability taken for these failures.

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

IF YOU RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM THE GAO TO COMPLETE A SUVEY ABOUT THE GHC- TODAY IS THE LAST DAY TO COMPLETE IT!

Please take the few minutes to complete the survey. The results will be used in a direct report to Congress and DoD and will help shape the future of the program

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

The post says June, it should be July. My apologies.

[Megan @PCSlikeAPro]

Many locations are hitting blackouts until mid June. With this being Ft Eustis, we expect to see the rest of the Hampton Roads area follow suit (Langley and Norfolk). There is much lower capacity this year due to the push of the GHC.

Sharing from another platform because of its length. In short, to my military community, Thank you!
