Are there watercraft (88L/88K) units in the northeast?

Looking at 88L for a new MOS after my contract is up. I understand there is a brigade based in VA that has units in VA, MD, and NC. Is this the sole brigade (reserves) or does the National Guard also operate a unit?

To clarify, by NE I mean the north east, and not Nebraska!

Are you located in PA? Is that where you are looking for a position at? I can get you contact information to Reserve Career Counselor in that area to assist you in finding a position.

Army Reserve Career Counselor here! There is one 88L E-7 and one 88K slot in PA, otherwise they're all in that brigade you already know about. I recently came from AP Hill , VA where there is a watercraft unit. I don't have visibility on NG units, but I thought I'd put in my two cents from the USAR perspective.
