Total Army Sponsorship
The Army Sponsorship program is designed to ease the transition from duty assignment to duty assignment.
- New duty assignment sponsorship begins prior to leaving the old duty station and is usually conducted during the Levy briefing.
- All soldiers assigned to Korea will be assigned a Sponsor. That individual will not be the person they are replacing and will typically not PCS within 60 days of the soldiers arrival.
- As part of the sponsorship program you will receive a welcome letter from your new commander and/or sergeant major. Your sponsor will be in touch with you shortly after they've been assigned.
- It is up to you the level of sponsorship you need.
If you are on orders to Korea and are less than 30 days from PCS and have not been contacted by your sponsor, contact a Korea Sponsorship Coordinator at:
