Greetings, I ask these questions on behalf of myself and the benefit of others, also to have a balanced perspective when talkng to recruiters/MEPS.

I am completely out of service, no commitment.

My questions surround re-enlistment cash, incentives, and duty station.

1: Can I get a 1 year duty station of choice?

2: I had student load repayment in my first enlistment. Now I have an additional $10k student loan. Can I tap into that bonus again? (I did not hit the 55k ceiling of the bonus the first time)...

3: Can I ask for Iraq of Afghanistan deployment from MEPS?

4: I was a 98J wich no longer exists as an MOS, split to 98C-98Y. Can I choose a new-low strength MOS? (I asked this question in the reclass forum)....

Thanks for all input, I need answers here because the recruiters/MEPS will treat me will not have a lot of time/energy to deal with me, and I want to take it easy on them.

-Thanks a Million,

Jason

Pretty sure you aren't going to have to ask to go to Afghanistan or Iraq

One year duty station of choice? Do you mean 1 year stabilization at your station of choice? Unless it's Korea, you're more than likely going to be at that station for more than a year.

Yes I did mean mean 1 year stabilization at your station of choice.

I am looking to come back in and stay in the Fort Meade vacinity because my son is in his senior year of HS.

I realize I could go wherever without my family. But I am simply asking if 1 year stabilization/station of choice is a MEPS option for soldiers who are re enlisting from the civilian side.

THanks, Jason

Not sure if thats an enlistment option, but you can try and request station of choice and get it in your contract so that you can request FT. Meade. AR would be better at helping you with this than I would.
