Naval Station Mayport, Florida, Naval Air Station (NAS) Jacksonville and Naval Submarine Base (NSB) Kings Bay recently opened their Emergency Family Assistance Centers (EFACs). The EFACs are manned with Navy counselors prepared to assist families returning to the installations. For personnel and families at NAS Key West, it is still too soon to establish an EFAC. Personnel and families should continue to monitor the NAS Key West Facebook page for updates. The evacuation order has been extended to Sept. 30. For Sailors returning, visit the Defense Travel System, to do the normal travel claim for temporary duty orders. These orders will cover the period you evacuated with your family. Meanwhile, personnel and families should check their installation or command Facebook pages for updates on the status of the impacted bases.
