I think it's going to be considered a deployment. They'll receive family separation pay. They'll likely stay in the barracks/housing already on the bases they will be TDY to.

The problem with this will be degradation of equipment when you're only a few weeks/months away from leaving some people will let things go to crap.



Yep. Part of my 3 1/2 years are exactly what you said. Still the benefits are sweet compared to a normal duty station.
