In-Place Consecutive Overseas Tour (IPCOT)

Purpose

  1. This allows a soldier to serve a consecutive overseas tour at the same location within Germany
  2. One approved, the tour will begin after the current DEROS. It is considered a regular PCS and is treated in most the same way.
  3. Since this is one type of consecutive overseas tour, the soldier will be entitle to 15 days non-chargeable leave and round trip tickets to the USA or 30 days non-chargeable leave. This is taken in place of PCS leave but must be taken within one year of the start of the tour. This one year requirement may be postponed by the command due to military necessity.
