The scenario at hand: Husband is SSG, in time service is currently almost at 10 years. His reenlistment window opens up in March of 2019, and he is desperately wanting to change his job. Last month he came down on orders to go FLW to be an AIT instructor (36 months), report date Jan 10th. This will put him well past his current contract length, and were concerned about his chances to reclass and possibilities. He's saying that he will more than likely have to extend his current contract to accept this position, but this will put him past the 12-year mark (indefinite reenlist would be his next/last one), and that he can't refuse to do that or he will basically be earmarked to be pushed out. So what to do? He's miserable in his current mos, but from what I am understanding, will pretty much have to take this three-year assignment or risk being pushed out of the army. Will he even be considered to reclass later on if he does this since he will be at 12+ years in one MOS?

I was in a situation very much like your husbands. He will have to reup for the assignment but the possibility to reclassify is still there. When his tour is nearly complete he can submit a 4187 (request for personal action) requesting reclassification. This is not a definite thing but it is a possibility. It worked for me when I came down on recruiting and then instructor orders back to back. I leave in March.

Samatha, let your husband do his job, do his homework on assignments, inform you and listen to your own spousal input before he selects his next duty stations/positions.
If you don’t mind; a military spouse’s duty is to support, defend and encourage their partner!

Your post is all over the place and poorly written. Before you embarrass your self again, look into taking a course in basic English composition.

Frank, is it possible? Sure, anything is possible. But as your level of writing is no higher than hers, and the tone of her question was more of concern for her husband and not really knowing how the system works, you don’t appear to be a proper judge of the situation.
What’s more likely, and I stand by my original assessment, is that you are simply another Rallypointer responding to a question in a manner that is following an unfortunate trend. You missed the Facebook/Twitter/instagram bandwagons, and you’re making up for lost time.

Perhaps, if you are indeed a MSG, you are the epitome of toxic unprofessional leadership.

Respectfully, to be ignorant is to be uninformed. Ignorance and stupidity aren’t synonymous.
The OP was ignorant to the policies and procedures surrounding her husband’s situation. So she asked. Haven’t you ever asked questions?
Not appearing to understand the difference between stupidity and ignorance would indicate a level of stupidity on your part.
