DOD movers prepare household goods for dumping in ocean/ being lost in warehouse

YOKOSUKA, Japan— Many Americans deal with clutter. However, a young enterprising Sailor has found a straightforward solution- for US service members at least: execute a Permanent Change of Station (PCS), and a significant amount of your possessions will vanish.

Petty Officer 1st Class Mary Khan-Dho, an information specialist stationed in Japan, has PCS’d quite a few times over her career. She is convinced that these frequent moves have helped her to develop a useful minimalist lifestyle.
