It almost seems like everybody is PCS-ing to Germany 😄

It might be because there is such a backlog of PCSes to Germany. My wife was supposed to be on Ramstein AB until July, one year, then go to Landstuhl Army hospital for the next two years, both places in Germany. Now her replacement at Ramstein wont be here until November, and she wont go to Landstuhl until January. There was a "stop movement" in place for a very long time, due to COVID-19,  no movement, no PCS at all. And then there is a 2 week mandatory quarantine prior to departing for Germany, and then a 2 week mandatory quarantine after arriving in Germany. One month quarantine in total.

Tell me about it... husbands deployment just got extended. All the schedules are messed up and we went through the quarantine stuff ourselves. 

 

Being from Germany and still have quite some friends stationed back there I always wonder where all the people posting here that they're going to Germany go to and if they will meet some of the people I know there. In the end, the military world is a small one 😄

The delays are all over the world for everything. Deployment, PCS and what not. It's not just Germany related
