Your sponsor is the key to your successful PCS and should be your first stop for information concerning travel to RAF Lakenheath. They have information on local transportation modes that can save you valuable time and hassle upon arrival in London. Be sure to contact them for assistance and keep them informed of your travel plans.
Your assigned squadron at Lakenheath will appoint you a sponsor. If the sponsor does not contact you directly, you may have to obtain the contact information through the gaining squadron’s orderly room, your local orderly room or through the Lakenheath Relocation Team by e-mailing FSC2@lakenheath.af.mil.
The sponsor is the point of contact for obtaining information and is there to assist you in getting settled here in England. You can direct any question you wish to your sponsor. Keep in mind that when a sponsor is assigned to an active duty member with a family, they do not only sponsor the active duty member, they address the needs of the entire family including pets.
Your sponsor is responsible for obtaining a post office box for you to start redirecting your mail. Your sponsor will need a copy of your orders to do so. If for some reason you would like to or need to secure one yourself, the post office can be reached at DSN:314- 226-2370 or 01638-522370, Fax: 314-226-1350 or 01638-521350. Tip: During your outbound briefings inquire about how to get reimbursed for mailing items.
