Navy families evacuated from Naval Support Activity Bahrain cannot return to retrieve personal belongings, but service members outside Bahrain are able to designate someone to do it on their behalf, according to the Navy. Over six months after the evacuation of approximately 1,300 dependents from NSA Bahrain, some families remain separated from household goods, vehicles and pets that were left behind.The Navy says family members and non-essential personnel who remain outside Bahrain have not been authorized to return to retrieve personal property because of ongoing security concerns.“Service members and affiliated civilians are responsible for initiating the household goods move process from temporary safe havens and from Bahrain with their chain of command,” a Navy spokesperson told Military Times. “Service members currently located in Bahrain can ship their household goods and vehicles in person, and those who are located outside Bahrain can designate a representative to act on their behalf.”One Bahrain-based sailor, who was granted anonymity due to concerns of reprisal, said the process remains frustrating and unclear.
