I’ve been at my duty station for two years and I want to request to PCS because of marriage except I don’t want to reinlist because my husband already did

Bottom line, you're going to have to reenlist.
If you were enrolled in MACP when your husband reenlisted for his duty station, you will be placed on assignment to the same place he's going. You'll have to extend or reenlist to meet the SRR depending on where you are going.

He’s already there, he PCSd to fort bragg last September and I’m at fort campbell. And he re-enlisted for 6 years. We got married after he PCSd SFC (Join to see)

SPC (Join to see) completely different story. As I said, that only applies to if you were both already enrolled in MACP when he reenlisted.
You will have to request Bragg as a duty station as your reenlistment. Your branch will not place you on assignment just because you are married and they won't 0paceyou on assignment at all because you're an initial term Soldier. To make it even more complicated, the only ADA unit at Bragg is Airborne, so if you aren't going Airborne, you most likely are not going there.
In your case, you will need to request Airborne training through your branch now, or your Career Counselor in September. You'll have to reenlist for four years to meet the three year Airborne commitment. You'll get a faster class date right now if you request it through your branch manager. You'll need an Airborne physical. Good luck!

On my first enlistment I had 12 months left and received a 15 month assignment. Back then the regulation stated you had to either re enlist or be discharged on your discharge date. At that time I wasn't planning on re-enlisting. When I arrived a McGuire AFB, NJ, personnel folks asked me why was I being sent and didn't have enough time to complete the assignment. Won't repeat what I told the indiv. What was funny, when my discharge date arrived, they had to return me to the states, but I got promoted just before then, collected travel pay back to where I first enlisted then they still had to return me to the states on my previous discharged date. What really made it good was I was stationed in Goose Bay Labrador, it was the only place where you collected travel pay from outside of the states to your home of record or next duty rather then port of entry. My next duty station was San Bernardino CA. It pays to learn other regulations other then those pertaining to your AFSC/MOS. The finance clerk didn't know that and didn't want to pay me until I showed him what his own regulation said.
