When to expect orders

DH is in the Army Reserves. He has been informed that the entire company will be deployed sometime early next year. Deployment is to a non-combat zone and they will have about a month of training before they leave. 

Of course, he has heard a million rumors about this. There are so many different stories about when the training will be, when deployment will begin and how long the deployment will be.  

I know nothing is official until orders are received, so does anyone have an idea how far in advance that typically is?

Re: When to expect orders

  • Yeeeeahh.. Deployment or PCS orders are all over the place.. Ya really never know. Sorry :/ Example: We already have paper orders for PCSing and that isn't for more than 7mo away... but H would get "deployment orders" until basically when he's on the plane.. lol. 
  • it is always different...we got our orders 2 days before we went to afghanistan...
    If you knew better, you'd do better.
  • It's different for everyone.  My Reserve unit heard rumors all the time.  We were told to expect orders any day now for 2 years.
