She waited to move because they already got their Dislocation Allowance for FY 2013, so they waited until FY 2014 to move. However, they were originally from CA, so they had family there to help with the transition.

The Navy did pay to move them to CA, but I am not sure if they had to shell it out first (DITY move), and then get reimbursed, or if they Navy just paid for it (gov't move)

As for ATT, I believe for FCs, I think it is 10 weeks. I know it is longer for ETs, maybe 11 weeks. Just depends on what you get assigned at bootcamp.

Thank you so much this is really helpful so you will already havrE orders to the base/ship for after c school before you go?
