What are the Army's current re-enlistment needs for 92Y?

I’m in my window to re-up by June and have 10 yrs in. My retention NCO told me that I’ll be falling under the Needs of the Army, which is something I really don’t want. How can I advanced myself from now till then so I can have more options open to me?

Maybe try for a higher level in the 92Y field, if your company level, try for Bn.

There's no "advancement" to it. You are categorized as a Careerist - someone who has more than 10 years active service at ETS. Because of this, IAW reenlistment policy, you are not authorized any reenlistment option. It happens to every MOS, regardless of rank. Some MOS's never get any reenlistment option.

However, there is a new change to the policy that allows you to reenlist for stabilization as well.

Your option is to work with the retention NCO and your Branch, know what you want and see if an assignment is open. As for advancement, you should be bucking for SSG!
