both my fiance and I are first term airmen in the USAF. he is currently stationed at a conus base about 1000 miles away from me. we are getting married soon and were wondering about join spouse assignments.
because of his job he can only be at two bases, with my job i can be stationed at virtually any base in the world, so I will be going to him. his current tos is about 1 year and mine is about 4 months. we both signed for 6 years and have about 4 1/2 yrs of retainability left. i understand that to have a permissive move i need 12months tos, but that his base not only needs an opening for my rank/skill level but a need to fill that opening.
whats the best way to go about getting stationed with my fiance? should I be talking to assignments at my base or the shop that I would like to have orders to or someone else?
