No matter how well you have planned your move, emergencies do
happen.
Before you leave, make sure you have all important papers with
you. Ensure movers do not pack your important papers, plane tickets,
or your military clothing. Make sure you have important numbers such
as SDO, your Command Duty Office and your sponsors. Your sponsor can
be invaluable in case of an emergency while in transit.
