Find the right organization

Assignments & visits.

Match the assignment or appointment to the responsible organization. Confirm reporting, access and household-support eligibility with the sponsor or host.

Confirm where you report

Confirm the assigned squadron, sponsor and military entrance at Quonset. A civilian airport or former naval-base address may lead to a different destination.

Reporting resources

Arrange campus entry

Before booking travel, ask the host to confirm the reporting point, arrival contact and any approval needed for your purpose of visit.

Official command

Arrange suitable accommodation

Ask the unit about authorized accommodation for drill, temporary duty or a full-time assignment. Do not assume the former naval station’s facilities remain available.

Accommodation contacts

Prepare a household move

Confirm school enrollment for the intended home address; use compact contacts for military-student transitions.

School transition contacts

Check the journey

Review closures and delays along your intended route before leaving. Obtain the final entrance and reporting point from your host rather than relying on the base name alone.

Transportation resources

Prepare for local alerts

Review the linked preparedness information for your destination. Identify local alerts and ask the receiving organization how it issues site-specific instructions.
