That's not greedy at all. Options and bonuses are different ... you can choose a reenlistment option and a bonus for 25N (PFC or SPC only). Most units even have reenlistment incentives that you'll be given as a "Thank You".
So are you saying it is possible to recieve a bonus and one of the enlistment options? So I could possibly get duty station of choice and a bonus? Or am I reading this horribly wrong?
Yes, if you qualify for a bonus, you can get a bonus and choice of duty station (if you are not in an overstrength MOS and you are under 10 years active service)
Wow, thanks for the info, I was under the impression you only got one option. Well, I guess I should say I thought a bonus would be one of the options just like duty station of choice. What other combinations could be offered? Such as Reclass and Bonus? Or is that just too much?
you know what i thought sounded greedy my CC counselor said i could reenlist now and then reenlist again in november before we redeploy each time with a bonus.
what i do want to know is it possible to reenlist in a zone for option 3 reclass and then b zone option 3 airborne training. my CC said no for the bzone airborne
my ets has been adjusted for stoploss thats why i can reenlist twice while deployed

Yeah, you can only get one reenlistment option at a time; bonuses are seperate.
Normally, you canont reenlist for option 3 and a get a bonus (because you wouldn't be qualified in the new MOS and you're voluntarily changing your current MOS.)

This is possible if you cross into the next zone of eligibility and have the necessary amount of additional obligated service. You just can't receive two bonuses from the same zone.

If you are an initial term Soldier, you'll be offered option 3. If you have already reenlisted once (mid-career Soldier), you won't be offered option 3. If you reenlist for anything other than option 1 before you receive the benefit of your first reenlistment, the system will override the first option with the second. So, no you cannot reenlist for option 3 twice in your deployment.
