I believe if you reclass you'll become needs of the Army. You won't be able to choose your duty station.

If you don't like the field and want to go overseas, try for LRMC since it's a TDA unit. The only "field time" I saw when I was there was when we went to the range.

You don't get to pick your follow on when you reclass, a person at retention branch picks an assignment with a report date that most closely matches your graduation date.

If you're going to submit for green to gold don't waste your time reclassing.

Germany, Hawaii, Italy are the best options for me, CONUS Ft Carson is not bad, but avoid NTC, Ft Polk or Ft Drum...

Wherever you are at, if you have the right attitude.

If you can get into unit supply, look for a school house unit. Major training centers probably have units that are dedicated to operating the school. The instructors are often assigned to these units along with training technicians who maintain the training equipment They need supply people also. They probably never go to the field. Ft Lee, Ft Rucker, and Ft Benning, come to mind.
