DoD Takes Immediate Action to Address Ongoing Issues in Military Relocation Program

The Department of Defense has mandated immediate changes to its Personal Property Program amid ongoing concerns over military relocation issues. This decision follows a series of investigations and reports highlighting the challenges faced by service members during relocations, including unfavorable rates for service providers. Defense Secretary has taken a proactive stance, replacing a senior official and emphasizing the need for reforms to improve the military moving system.
