I have just graduated AIT and will be transferring to Schofield soon. Any advice would be appreciated. I do have some questions for anyone willing to help:
-I am an E2, soon to be E3. What/where will I be living (I am single). What are the rooms like?
-I will be shipping my car. What will be required when it arrives (taxes, tag, etc)
Any other advice would be great. I've never been to Hawaii so this is all new to me!

When I was there in 2008 the billeting was two soldiers shared a living area. Each had their own bedroom but shared a bathroom and kitchette. There is and has been ongoing remodeling of the barracks there so things might be different depending on the unit you are assigned to.

As a military member you can maintain your current state's registration of your vehicle but have to have it inspected annually like Hawaii tagged vehicles. Or you can register it in Hawaii; paying the same sales tax and fees you have in most other states.

I presume you will be in the 25th ID as this is their home. Expect to be deployed every 12-18 months; they are an active division.

PS: Schofield is a nice place and Hawaii is beautiful; enjoy yourself.
