The claim departs from the passage: the post concerns Navy families evacuated from Bahrain who were told to leave hotels and short-term rentals for permanent housing by December 1, but the extracted claim generalizes this to 'families of military personnel' in general. The sources support only part of the Bahrain account (support payments end Nov.

What was said
… the Pentagon, telling them that none of these families have any of their personal belongings, but the Pentagon shut them down and essentially said, "Too bad." Those safe haven entitlements that the families had been getting are going to end on November 30th. They're all expected to move out of the hotels and short-term furnished rentals that they were in into long-term permanent housing by December 1st, despite the fact that none of them have any of their belongings, and the Navy even acknowledged that it's going to take anywhere from four to six months for them to get their stuff. …
Deadline: White House · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. The same report says most of these families have been living in short-term furnished rentals or hotels since their March evacuation, which matches the post's description of their temporary housing.[1]
Context. The MS NOW report says the Navy told evacuated families from the Bahrain base region that government support payments would stop Nov. 30, and that a blanket extension had been denied by Pentagon leadership.[1]
Context. General Army and Air Force housing and relocation pages describe standard PCS housing processes and do not address any December 1 deadline for evacuated families to move into permanent housing.[2][3][4][5]
Context. No source in the set states that families were expected to move into permanent housing by December 1, so the specific deadline is not corroborated.[1]
