JBLM is aligned with the Pacific area. You may go to a rotation in Korea, but it&#39;s not guaranteed.<br />Years ago 2ID did rotations to Korea, now other units at other posts rotate to Korea for 9 month rotations.

Most people that I have known get stationed in Korea but a few do get Europe. You can also get stuck at JBLM for a long time I have seen that also.
