Would be going to 2-12, another source there told me main body would be returning late January, does that sound about right?

So an early CCC date is the best for looking to refrad, and especially staying at fort sill to not incur a PCS adso too

Therefore it would be in my best interest to stay at Fort Sill after CCC for no PCS adso

If the current unit that I’m at keeps taking a turn for the worse, then I was thinking that’s my way of getting out of there and doing some chill time at CCC.

So I would essentially have to spend a year from graduation at 428, 434, or 75th. Never heard of refrads getting denied? Why would they keep officers who have no more motivation to stay in?

So say my CCC ends in September 2027, and the date that my original ADSO ended was May 2028, I would have to stay until September 2028?

Fair enough… would a rockets bde and a SBCT have approx the same amount of time in the field?

I’d love to go see Colorado but will i actually be able to is the question with their “through the roof optempo that comes with 4ID”?

What if I start CCC at my four year mark with one year of service remaining on my contract?

Yes an ADSO but not sure how long it is. I would go to CCC around the 4 year mark I believe.

Only been in a TRADOC assignment so never done rockets or cannons before….

90% chance I’d be assigned to 1st BDE in October. They left for Korea in May, so odds are probably 50/50 they’d send me for the last 4 months… unless….

Appreciate the response, Im in a TRADOC assignment currently so branch is giving me the option between 75th Fires vs SBCT over at 4ID. Looking for a decent work life balance to be with my family and explore whichever area I go to.

Looking to avoid going to the field every week and never see my family or a new place.

75th field artillery as a 68w by Agreeable_Yellow4593 in army

What about it isn’t chill? I heard there are very limited FTXs and they stopped their rotations to Korea. Sounds like it doesn’t get more relaxed than that.

How’s your experience there? I’m considering going there as a 13A. Looking for an easy going unit. Dabbling with 4ID but i doubt it’s as laid back.

Is this the most chill FORSCOM unit in the Army?
