Travel Planning

We cannot stress the importance on contacting the sponsor enough. Your sponsor was chosen for you by the receiving command to assist you with your concerns prior to travel and en route. Let your sponsor know your cellular phone number and when you will be in town. If you're flying in, plan to come into either Newark International Airport - Newark, NJ or Philadelphia International Airport - Philadelphia, PA.

Reporting Procedures

Personnel reporting during normal hours (7:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.), Monday - Friday, to activities located aboard the Lakehurst Annex of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, report first to the Navy MILPERS Office in building 150, Room B127. Turn in your orders and records, file necessary travel claims, and pick up a check-in sheet. Your assigned sponsor will be contacted by MILPERS and he/she will arrive to assist you with your check-in.

Personnel reporting after normal working hours (4:30 p.m. - 7:00 a.m.) to Lakehurst, report to Visitors Quarters in Bldg 481 to have their orders stamped with time/date of arrival. Also, the department to which you are reporting should be contacted to advise them of your arrival at Lakehurst during which time you will be given instruction on when to report to MILPERS to complete your check-in process. This policy also applies to those personnel desiring to report aboard during weekends and holidays.
