REDEPLOYMENT TO FORT RILEY-MAIN BODY
At this time, we are expecting the main body of 1-4 CAV to return during the first 2 weeks of July. We do not have more specific information at this time.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER REDEPLOYMENT?
LEAVE AND PASSES
After redeployment, all Soldiers will receive a 96 hour pass. Upon return from pass, they will go through approximately 10 to 14 days of re-integration training. Upon completion of re-integration, Soldiers will receive 2 weeks of leave. At this time, those two weeks are expected to be around the 4th week of July to the 1st week of August. Upon return from leave, Soldiers will have approximately 3 weeks back at work for more re-integration and other activities that need to be completed upon return from a deployment. Soldiers will then receive another 2 weeks of leave. These two weeks are expected to be around the end of August to mid-September. There may be exceptions which will be taken under advisement by Command on a case by case basis.
WHEN TO STOP SENDING MAIL
CSM McDowell stated that it is their preference that you send no more mail after 23 May. This is to ensure all packages are delivered before your Soldier has to begin packing things up to bring back to Fort Riley. They do not need anything “extra” to bring back after that date.
