Right on time! I just dropped my husband off to the airport this morning for Germany and me, the kids, and our dog will be going in 3 weeks.
Thank you so much for these videos, they truly are a great help! You cover all of the questions that I’ve been having concerning this PCS move in all of your videos. Great content, thank you!
THIS is what inspires me to create! This made my day :) Thanks, I'm happy to help!
Thank you! We are heading to Italy, but this info is still extremely applicable. Great info!
Ouuu good to know it’s applicable 😊
This ultimate checklist !!!! All hero’s don’t wear capes!! I greatly appreciate you!!
Thank you!! I hope the checklist helps you out!!
Thanks for all of the great information! Me and my husband will be moving to Germany shortly, just waiting on amended orders. All of your videos are so helpful. I didn't have a very good idea of what to bring in flight baggage/UB/HHG and this helped me get an idea of what I will need. Please keep making these videos and thank you so much!
You are so welcome!! Thanks for the support! Less stress, more travel please 🧳 😊
I'm actually PCSing out of Germany this month after 12 years and wish I had this video when I first moved over! Definitely using this as I move to the states!! Thank you 😊
Wow 12yrs! 👏🏽 Thanks so much for watching!
Dang dude , I could almost taste that Hefe Weiss beer .Great video love how its grown since I was there in 85 .Shout out to all my old Army buddies from 568th and all veterans.
Prost!🍻
It’s also good to point out that at any time when you feel items aren’t being inventoried correctly or logged into the packing list to contact TMO inspector. Had this occur where several boxes/furniture weren’t annotated . Packing was stopped and boxes without it repacked. Also make sure your trash is empty …it will be packed otherwise and move with you. I moved many times and no move is the same hence this is why I’m educating myself again for our upcoming move! Great video thank you!
All good points, thanks for the insight 👌🏾
Oh goodness! Just found out I’m heading to Germany Friday, and it’s my first assignment (post-schoolhouse, at least!). Thank you so much for this video! It helps tremendously 😭 still have many many questions, but this is a great start! 👍💯
Welcome to the channel! You’re gonna love Germany! If you still have more questions, check out the full blog post: www.dtvdanieltelevision.com/2021/09/18/unaccompanied-baggage/
Great!
Do you have a video on receiving HHG? Tips and tricks with the movers, housing, unpacking, assembling furnitures and getting rid of all the cardboards?
Unfortunately I don't (yet) 🫣 Great question though, I'm throwing it on the "to do" list.
Great videos and information. As for other things to possibly cover, help with phone usage in Germany/Europe and differences in EUSEUR drivers license and an international drivers license. Vehicle inspection and registration comes to mind as well.
All great topics. Phone usage is coming soon, and I’ll add the others as well. Thanks.
Thank you dude
You’re welcome 🤙🏾
Heading to Vicenza but loved your videos
Thanks for watching bro 👌🏾
Yeah,dvds are still a thing.LoL!!
I have a personal portable dvd player.
My husband re-enlisted for Germany we still have a year but I feel like it’s gonna go fast
Man I got over 100 pairs of sneakers and I don't know what to do when we PCS to Germany. I hope I don't lose any or anything is stolem
UB is not based on rank.
It’s based on location.
2000 pounds for OCONUS
Hey! So Air Fryers won't blow up? How long does HHG take if you are going solo and way under 1,000 pds? This has been so helpful. WOW
Hey thanks for watching! Your air fryer won’t blow up IF the plug is compatible with 220V outlets. Check the actual cord itself. Number 20 will give you some examples 👍🏾

Thank you for all the information. My brother is going to move there next year from Chile. Any adult school that he can go to learn the the language? Any other recommendation that may help him? thanks again.
Hey sorry for the delay. Have him check out VHS for language school. That’s where I went! www.volkshochschule.de
Question? I always hear the horrors of shipping your HHG
Where do you recomend sending your clothes? And shoes?
Just with you in your personal luggage?
Or is it fine with UAB ? How is HHG different from UAB?
A lot of airlines offer up to 5 free checked bags. Would you suggest taking as much as you can with you THEN UAB? And the rest HHG?
My recommendation: Take your favorite, most worn shoes and up to 3-4 weeks of clothes with you in your personal luggage. Definitely take advantage of all the free checked bags the airline offers. EVERYONE PCSing overseas has a crazy amount of luggage, it's a completely normal thing. Secondary clothes/shoes goes in UAB, but don't overdue it. You want to save room for all the other things I mentioned to bring in UAB (non clothing stuff). Everything else in HHG. Personal luggage obviously goes with you, so that's priority 1. UAB is "supposed to" get there next (by plane) so it's priority 2. HHG takes the longest (by boat), so it's priority 3. I hope that helps!
Housing provides washer and dryer there temporarily or it comes with the house
Housing provides this for you 👍🏾
“Maybe your neighbor stinks,” 😂😂😂
Do you have a recommendation for a real estate agent near Ramstein?
Join this group (most people from Ramstein) and ask the question in the group. I only know agents in the Bavaria region 😬 facebook.com/groups/ProfessionalCommunitySponsors/?ref=share
What about traveling with pets? We have 2 dogs and a cat. Thanks!
Hi 👋🏾 First you’ll need an ETP (exception to policy) to bring 3 pets. Have you checked out my PCS with a pet blog? This will answer many of your questions: www.dtvdanieltelevision.com/2020/02/04/pcs-to-germany-with-pets/
Did you already leave Germany?
I thought the max allowed to stay OCONUS was 5 years for civilians and 7 for Military using IPCOT.
We're employed by DODEA so we can stay indefinitely :)

Thanks for the reply!
Wow, so that’s the way to do it.
I keep going back to Germany, first 2 times as Air Force 2004-2006, then 2011-2014. Both at Ramstein.
Now going to Graf as a GS, hopefully 5 years this time.
