Information GI Bill The Army G1 announced the current policy and procedure for determining the length of an ADSO based on the Service Member’s qualifying service as of 1 Au-gust 2009 will end on 1 Aug 2013. After that date, all Service Members will be held to a four year ADSO regardless of their qualifying years on 1 Aug 2009. Requests for transfer of benefits are made through MILCONNECT at https://www.dmdc.osd.mil/milconnect/faces/index.jspx and the ADSO starts on the date the request is approved, not 1 Aug 2009.

Voting If you haven't registered to vote yet or requested an Absentee Ballot from your home state, check out the website below to do so at this time. November 7th is Election Day, are you ready? http://www.fvap.gov/

Please note that there is an error on the ACS calendar and CLIF notes for the month of October. Please note that the Key Caller Advanced class is on 15 October, 1 – 2:30pm in ACS.

Snow is around the Corner.
