13 Memes for a Military PCS

PCSing! A big part of being a military spouse is moving every few years. While some families move after a just year and some don’t move for five or more, most military families are moving at least every 3-4 years. And that doesn’t include moving to a different home at the same duty station.

I have been through three PCS moves myself. We moved from Kentucky to Germany, within Germany, and then to Tennessee. In addition to that, I have probably moved about 15 times since leaving my parents house. Moving isn’t very much fun but a PCS can be a way to have a fresh start.

Here are 13 memes all about a military PCS:

Yes, you will be waiting for what seems like forever only to be told you have one week to get everything done. It’s crazy but that is pretty much what can happen, especially during an overseas PCS when you are waiting on a lot of paperwork.

This is for real! Sometimes you get amazing housing, sometimes you don’t. Such as military life.

Yes, you might not be excited about where you are moving but that doesn’t mean you won’t make the very best friends of your life there.

The number one tip for finding new friends at your duty station is to keep putting yourself out there.

Yep, nothing is final until you are physically there.

That would be the best!

Yes, finding friends at your new duty station will make your time there so much better. Being lonely isn’t any fun.

So true! All three of my kids were born in different places.

I really didn’t know where my son was going to start kindergarten until a year before and we got orders to Ft. Campbell. A lot of people have less time than that.

Yep! Don’t be afraid to ask for help!

Yes, you never know where you might end up!

I think we still probably have some from 2005.

Just got to go with the flow here…
