My re-enlistment window just opened up and I’m thinking about reclassing to 31K, 91E, 92R in that order. What is your opinion on them?

I have the scores for all of them, just looking for some opinions or people currently in these jobs. Promotion rates, deployments, duty stations... etc

I do not know a lot about these MOSs on the active side but what I do know I will share. As a 91E if you deploy you will most likely be with a maintenance unit or possibly vertical engineers, working on the fob. Unless there is a forward mission for which there is a requirement for a welder, like my current deployment. From my understanding promotion rates for a 91E are not that high for any component of the Army. When I was in Kuwait in 15-16 there were quite a few 31k there, they had their own little compound where they worked with the dogs and did their thing, as far as deployments go with that I would imagine wherever there are working dogs still being used you would go, but primarily again you would be on the fob. 92R you have an 80% shot off the bat you will go to Bragg, or possibly Campbell. Just like 31R, where ever there’s a need for that MOS you have a chance of going, if they are not performing airborne operations in country then the chances of you deploying probably not very high. I would say choose something that you have a true interest in and something that will also set you up for success both in the military and when you transition out.

91es typically live a chill life and have alot of time to practice and learn alot of other 91 series jobs ,

You probably won't find any 31K class seats. You can search through RP to see how many people ask about 31K. It's a small MOS with a bottleneck at SGT. The same problem with promotion for 91E. You can go back and look at the promotion points for the last year on the HRC Enlisted Promotion website. If you like jumping then 92R is a great MOS.

Bro I’m a 92 R, there may be big enlistment or re-enlistment bonuses for the job but I’m telling you it’s awful.

I am a 92R here at Fort a Bragg, NC, and the job isn’t too bad. It’s a very small field, therefore, you will see people over and over again everywhere you go. If you’re good with your hands, and have a good attention to detail, you’ll do well.

Riggers work hard but you can get some cool schools. If you don't mind hard work and long hours be a rigger. Deployments are rare though

92R is an interesting job. I recommend a thick skin and able to hold your own when smack talk comes your way. Of course you get the cool schools like MMF and Jumpmaster but you work for it. It’s a repetitive job at times to make the mission happen but if you have good soldiers who work hard, you can (at times) get home early enough to see your family. Keep in mind, it pretty hard to reclass out of also.

As a current 91E I would say go for it but keep in mind a lot of units don’t know what a 91E is or even what we do but If you do get a unit that has us then you will do anything that is not a mos in the army like wood working and possibly being cross trained as other 91 series but I love it

its been a while since I was last on this site. as a former rigger I would not reclass to be a rigger. nothing on the outside for the mos. sadly its an mos that is slowly dying away. if you can get a rigger job with socom or the dark side of the house its an excellent job, go to bragg or benning its just like a factory job

91E is a under appreciated MOS with little to none mission critical duties. You will be making “trophies” and grills. You will eventually venture out and help out the mechanics. The best thing about being a 91E is vehicle recovery.
