Answer 2

my experience was quite a few years ago, but, there wasplenty of assistance available to arrange transportation,to your next duty station, if a shore unit, the living accomodations are quite comfortable, if a cutter you live aboard,if you have a family,accomodations can be made ifbase housing is available, in advance, my first duty station was a lifeboat station,that housed everyone in a three story building with limited dependent housing, when you leave basic you can get that info, prior to departure, however in my case i was sent to district 13, in seattle and then transferred to a duty station, i believe the system is pretty much the same now
