At Kadena AB, Japan, we strive to create an inclusive environment that cultivates the development and training of Airmen. The Air Force recognizes that the management of Unaccompanied Housing (UH) facilities is critical to an Airman's development process. UH is a personal residence and we strive to provide a modern, functional, well maintained and comfortable home, as well as promote pride, professionalism and personal dignity.
UH is provided for unaccompanied Airmen in the ranks of E-1 to E-4. Each Airman is provided a private sleeping room, furnishings, bed linens and supplies required for comfortable living. (Room arrangements may vary depending on dormitory)
The permanent party UH campus at Kadena AB, Japan consists of Airmen in the ranks of E-1 to E-4 residing in various type of rooms with different configurations.
Amenities include fully furnished rooms (due to the shipment of household good limitation), cleaning supplies and equipment is provided.
Restrictions at Kadena AB, Japan include 10% JFTR for all E-5 and above. Please reconsider bringing large pieces of furniture. We highly recommend that you utilize your Non Temporary Storage (NTS) entitlement at origin. If you bring furniture that will not fit into your dorm room or other unaccompanied quarters, the government will not return these items to NTS and storage facilities are not available. All dormitory rooms are furnished to include linens, a microwave and a refrigerator. Some dormitories have shared bathrooms and some have private bathrooms. Most dormitories have shared kitchens, laundry rooms and fitness areas.
Base Specific Policy
During your orientation, the ADL or UH Management Office representative will inform you of all Air Force and base-specific policies. Currently at Kadena AB, Japan there is a Constrained Location Policy in place and Unaccompanied Housing Brochure is provided to all inbound residents upon arrival.
UH Management Office Staff
The UH Management Office is staffed with professionals that can assist with all of your housing needs. Staffs vary but can be comprised of non-commissioned officers (NCO), Senior NCOs and some bases have civilian employees. The assigned military are Airman Dormitory Leaders (ADL). These members are highly motivated personnel dedicated to ensuring that residents receive quality service. ADLs will provide you guidance and advice on UH life as well as mentor you on succeeding in the Air Force.
Assignment Procedures
As soon as you are notified of your assignment, contact your gaining unit and request to be assigned a sponsor. Your sponsor will be another military member assigned to your unit and will assist with your move. The sponsor or gaining unit must then contact their squadron's Airmen Dorm Leader to notify them of your impending arrival date and work to secure you a dormitory room.
Unit Integrity
In most cases, you will be assigned a room in an area of the dormitory set aside for the personnel who work in your unit. This is to promote camaraderie among squadron members. If a room is not available near other members of your unit, you may be assigned a temporary room until one with your unit becomes available.
Planning Your Move
Prior to travel, arrange to meet your sponsor or someone from your unit upon arrival at the gaining installation.
If you arrive on a business day during normal duty hours, have your sponsor escort you to the UH Management Office. An ADL or a civilian Dorm Manager will take you through the process of checking you into your room and performing a move-in inspection and inventory of the allotted furnishings and supplies.
If you arrive on the weekend or after normal duty hours, have your sponsor make arrangements to pick up your room key from the UH Management Office or acquire a hospitality room for you until you can meet with an ADL or Dorm Manager.
If you obtain your room key outside of normal duty hours, it is still a mandatory requirement to report to the UH Management Office the next duty day for in-processing.
Sponsors are responsible for ensuring a room is assigned prior to inbounds arrival. Sponsors will sign/pick-up room key, linen and anything else to ensure a smooth transition.
Resident Responsibilities
You will be expected to keep your room and any shared living space clean and tidy. Cleaning supplies and equipment can be provided to you free of charge. You will also be accountable for your room and the furnishings provided. Residents may be held liable for any damages beyond normal fair wear and tear. See your ADL or UH Management Office representative if you have any questions about your resident responsibilities.
Inspection Program
The Installation Commander establishes a base-wide UH inspection program focused on health and safety. Squadron Commanders and unit First Sergeants implement the inspection program and visit rooms to ensure that all residents from their squadron comply with installation standards.
Bay Orderly Program
UH residents are expected to assist in the cleaning and upkeep of common areas and shared facilities of their "home." You will periodically be detailed to perform essential cleaning and minor maintenance around the UH campus.
Dormitory Councils
The Airmen Dormitory Council is the forum by which residents of an individual dormitory or group of dormitories address concerns about their living environment with a panel of their peers. The purpose of the council is to establish standards for all residents, present solutions for problem areas, establish positive recreational activities and identify facility and furnishing improvements. Participation at your location is a chance to be involved in shaping your living environment and provides an opportunity for personal growth and development in the areas of leadership and personal relationships. Ask your ADL or UH Management Office representative about how you can get involved.
Termination
It is mandatory for unaccompanied Airmen in the ranks of E-1 to E-4 to reside in UH. Contact your respective ADL for procedures you must follow to clear your room. Your ADL or UH Management Office representative will advise residents when early release is necessary.
Space Available Rooms
All dorms have sponsors, however, if there are no rooms available inbounds will be assigned to other squadrons facilities. Dorm Integrity is enforced when rooms become available. |
