Jordan,
You can always volunteer to deploy. But, I can tell you from experience that you're looking for career progression/promotion, don't get stuck doing deployments. Experience wise, deployments are good because they provide you with countless situations which will develop and become a good solid leader. But you have to balance everything out, meaning spend time in garrison so you can experience other things/situations, go to school, etc.
I always liked to deploy, but found out a little too late that serving and performing in garrison matters.

In the National Guard the answer is yes if there is a deploying Guard unit that has a shortage in your MOS.
