What are the chances of being stationed overseas after being stationed “overseas” for the past 3 years?

I’m a 13B and I’ve spent the last 3 years at my 2nd duty station (Hawaii) and am reenlisting for airborne. What are the realistic chances they would send me to Germany after jump school? I really don’t want to be overseas for another 3 years nahmean? Rather be at Bragg

There are five Airborne Field Artillery Battalions (AFAB) in the Army, actually I think the the whole world. Three are in Bragg, one in Germany, and one in Alaska. So, 60% of the 13B are in Bragg, 20% in Germany, 20% in Alaska.

But to do consecutive overseas tours you have to request another tour, so you're going to Bragg as your follow on assignment

There are opportunities for an overseas assignment as an AB Artillerist, there are also many Soldiers looking to go overseas, your odds are what they are, contact Branch and ask.

Hawaii is the United States, not necessarily overseas.

UPDATE: I’m being sent to Alaska. So to answer my own question I will be going OCONUS to OCONUS. Owell.
