But yeah, often it's just the inability to go to the actual location ahead of time. And we hear this a lot from folks that kind of stumble upon us out of a need. So it does not take a rocket scientist to see why dealing with your new duty station from your old one is not the best, right? But I'm sure you've seen some pretty dramatic examples of times this has been a huge problem. That's right, who needs clothes? It's fine. Great, right? Wardrobe, a toaster and my Margarita glasses probably. Well, first that we didn't even know the words "household goods." Like what we own could not be called household goods, those days. Oh, the days when all of our household goods. It was like take eight trips and get it done. Like filling up your laundry basket kind of move like not like, not you hauls in big moving trucks and stuff. Okay, but were you at the same college or. So um, yeah, I moved a couple of times when I was a kid and then like almost every eight months in college. But I counted back with my non-military moves. Okay, so you threw me off on this question because I usually say seven, which is our number of official PCSes and we did most of those in, like, three years, a three year time span, which is kind of crazy. Start by telling us how many times you have personally moved with the military or otherwise. Today, Kellie is going to give us her best intel on setting up your new home from afar. Kellie Artis is an Army spouse and part of the brains behind Millie, a wealth of information and help for duty stations nationwide, and a real life army of military spouses from all branches whose only job is to be your eyes and ears on the ground at your upcoming duty station home. How would you really know what you want if you've never spent significant or often any time there? Today's PCS with guest is a top expert on dealing with your new duty station while still at your old one. On the other hand, putting together your new life from a distance is basically a trust fall. On the one hand, nothing is better than the feeling of knowing you've got housing all locked and loaded before you even watch the movers pack the van. But of course, you're also doing this from afar. Where should you live? What schools should your kids attend? Where is the nearest Target? And is it or is it not a Super Target? In short, only the important stuff. If you're anything like me, the second those military move orders, or even the rumor of military move orders hits your radar, you're researching the heck out of your next duty station. The following is an edited transcript of this episode of PCS with.
This episode is brought to you by Navy Federal Credit Union.
3 Ways to Prepare for Your New Duty Station Before Leaving Your Old One.

The Pentagon doesn’t pay for house-hunting trips or new duty station fact-finding missions. The woman said they were ignoring her questions, too.īut she did receive a new package in the mail - and this time, it was a box of cigars.One of the challenges with any military Permanent Change of Station (PCS) move is that you likely won’t ever see your new home until you actually arrive with your stuff already packed away. UPS wouldn’t answer any of WREG’s other questions. The state added that this incident is “extremely unusual,” and it “will not cause issues or delays.” “We are now working with our common carrier to help us determine what happened.” “We are still investigating this issue,” a spokesperson for the state said. The state, however, would not disclose the identity of the intended recipient of the plates, or whether they believed this incident was related to a crime, or simply an accident. They showed up at her house shortly afterward and eagerly took the plates. Hours later, state agents contacted WREG for the woman’s information.

Ed. Note: In honor of the International Blues Challenge – which kicks off this week on Beale Street – I’m happy to share this post from new ILM contributor Wesley Paraham. – Holly Updated January 2019. Southern Avenue is a band tempered by Memphis. They’ve got it in their name, you can see it in their members, and you can certainly feel it in their music. Here’s a little background information: Guitarist Ori Naftaly grew up in Israel, but that didn’t stop Memphis from finding on the other side of the world. “Albert King, the blues, I listened to everything that came out of Memphis,” he said. He became an incredibly skilled blues guitarist  and made his way here to compete in the International Blues Challenge. “It was a dream to be able to come,” he added. It was such a dream, in fact, that he decided to stay. While ingraining himself in the Memphis blues scene, he met Tierinii Jackson. She’s Memphis-born and grew up in the church, and we all know that’s where some of the best talent is nurtured. Ori and Tiernii starting writing songs together, and they clicked. “Everything I lack, she has. And everything she lacks, I have.” We had the best time at the #Sundance @ascap music cafe!!! #SouthernAvenue #MemphisMusic #StaxRecords A video posted by ⓜ ⓔ ⓜ ⓟ ⓗ ⓘ ⓢ (@southernavenuemusic) on Jan 25, 2017 at 3:53pm PST Apparently, they worked so well together that they both shelved very successful solo gigs in order to form a band. To fill out the songs they had written, Tiernii brought her sister Tikyra in to play drums. They threw in jazz bassist Daniel McKee and keyboardist Jeremy Powell to round it out. They weren’t even a band a whole year yet before they recorded an album and signed to Stax Records. Before a recent live studio appearance Southern Avenue did in 2017 on WREG News Channel 3’s Live at 9, news anchor Alex Coleman remarked that some people are calling the band “the future of blues music.” That’s a lofty statement to throw at any young band, but, after watching their performance, it’s not hard to come to the same conclusion. Southern Avenue’s brand of blues is infused with soul, R&B, rock, and jazz in a genuine way that presents a valiant effort move the genre away from the bombastic space that contemporary blues rock occupies. Photo provided by Southern Avenue and used with permission. For use by I Love Memphis Blog only. I got the chance to listen to their debut album, and the track I keep revisiting is “Love Me Right”, a solemn, soulful ballad about the pains of unrequited loyalty in a relationship. Even though their sound errs on the side of classic, modern influences are in the forefront. Tierinii Jackson’s voice is stadium quality. There’s much more Beyoncé force than Memphis Minnie grit there, and it’s a blessing. To me, that’s what makes this band worth talking about. In addition to the ridiculous amount of talent you get by tallying everyone in this band, Southern Avenue is youthful and vibrant. They’re out here giving life to a genre too long dominated by people obsessed with emulating the past. And that’s a good deed done for blues fans everywhere.

American Blues Scene described their single “Don’t Give Up” as being “as comfortable at a Friday night fish fry as it would at Sunday morning services.” I mean, if that’s not a glowing review, I don’t know what is.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — When tornadoes hit, meteorologists have an incredible responsibility to keep people safe, keeping cool on the air even though a killer is heading right for our doorstep. But sometimes that responsibility hits very close to home. In February 2008, as a storm system spawned 87 tornadoes that killed 57 people, WREG’s Chief meteorologist Tim Simpson and veteran meteorologist Jim Jaggers were tracking storms all day and all night. Late in the afternoon, they spotted a funnel cloud on the horizon, and watched it grow into an EF2 tornado that raked across Southaven, Mississippi and into Memphis. Jim had to tell his family — on air — to get to safety. “People are depending on us,” Tim says. “Their lives depend on what we say and how we warn them. And that’s something we take seriously here at News Channel 3.” That’s one of the severe weather stories you’ll find in “Tornado Alert: Emotional Terror,” a new podcast debuting today on iTunes, Spotify and WREG.com. “Tornado Alert: Emotional Terror” brings WREG’s Weather Experts together with colleagues from Oklahoma City, Fort. Smith and Birmingham to recount their scariest moments on the air. You’ll find it here on WREG.com, as well as iTunes and Spotify — we urge you to download it, rate it and then share it with your friends."
