I am a SPC(P), 68W1P, assigned to the 82nd Airborne Division since April 2003. I just reclassed to 68W through the BEAR program and was sent back to the 82nd. My ETS is is 14 MAR 2010. Can someone please tell me how I can get orders assigning me to Ft. Hood, Ft. Bliss, Ft. Lewis, Ft. Eustis, Korea, or Kuwait? I would really like to see another post.

take it from someone who misses bragg. the grass is not always greener on the other side.

Considering the 4 BCT's will be deployed soon, you might be in the same boat as me and can't put in a 4187 to get transferred out due to the "Fenced Unit" thing. I just found out about that recently. If you're within your re-enlistment window, you can probably try that option.

1. call you branch is you only choice at this time if you reenlist under the BEAR program to change MOS all ready is to late if you report to 82nd all ready the only choice that you have is to call you branch and ask to deploy whit any other unit have 4187 ready to fax them.

Thanks for all the feedback. I just reenlisted two months ago, so I'm not in my window yet. My unit is fenced right now, sorry that I didn't mention that. I was really trying to find out what I can do to leave once they get back in a few months. If I call branch and volunteer to deploy with another unit, does that mean they'll actually assign me to that unit, or will I just be attached to them and return to Bragg after deployment?

Depending on your MOS and rank, we could always switch. I'd be more than happy to help bring you back to Bragg.

why dont you cross over to the SOF Community there. There is group and 112th and even JSOC. Trust me you will like that alot better than the 82nd

He said he wants to see a different post, not a different side of the post.

hey 35MLOOPF I was making a suggestion. Seeing he is in the 82nd and I am pretty sure he doesnt like it there. So please do me a favor and post something useful. But your probably a leg anyway and wouldnt know anything about that...

LOL

Check your ASK and see if you qualify for any requisitions.

Or consider dropping a 4187 for an ASI school. Plenty of options for medics out there.

Korea is always an option, I have seen them PCS someone to Korea with just over a year on station because he volunteered.

But by all means call branch and see what they can do for you.

Thanks for the feedback. I haven't checked this thread in a long time. I called branch to try to get Korea, but I was told I was fenced until 90 days after my unit returns in November '07. I've considered flight medic school, but I don't want to take the risk of completing the school and being assigned to some aviation unit on Bragg.

You wont stay at bragg forever..complete as many schools as possible man!

Especially as a G-dd-mn medic!!!

so my husband and i are do to go to polk feb of 2008 and we are trying to trade for hauchuca where my fam is so if you have any advice on how to do that please let me know lina_wigington@hotmail.com thanks
