I'm in the same boat as you. I'm ready to get out of the MP Corps. Just waiting to be in my re-enlistment window. I'm considering 15E or 15W. I'm also more concerned about doing the actual job and gaining applicable experience for after my Army career.

As far as your family being able to go with you to school if/when you reclass, this is what it says in AR 601-280 (Army Retention Program)

a. If the school course is 20 weeks or more in duration, the Soldier will be assigned to the school in a PCS status.
b. If the school course is less than 20 weeks duration the Soldier will be assigned according to instructions from Commander, HRC. The
personnel records custodian will obtain ultimate unit assignment from the Soldier’s new career management branch, HRC, before issuance
of movement orders.


Also, you don't have to be over strength to get out. If the MOS you want to go into accepts balanced MOS's, then you'll be GTG on that MOS. Currently 15E accepts balanced MOS's in accordance with the current "Reclassification IN/OUT calls" MILPER message.

It honestly depends. You'll definetly fly and train alot in the beginning to prepare. There are alot of new regulations that you'll have to learn for flight. Shadow units tend to spend now time in the field and their units are usually attached to infantry or similar units. Gray eagle doesn't go to the field for flight training often because we need an actual paved runway to take off. I'm currently a squad leader, unit trainer, and I'm currently in school to be one of our units instructors. So it can get pretty hectic. The big thing to remember is that this MOS has 2 career paths for the most part. Those who want quick career progression, and those who actually care about the job and want to better the other aviators around them

Yea it should be open for awhile honestly. Ssg point have been like that for about 4 years just about. I'm not sire how long the bonus will be where it is now but it's usually up there. I know we just had a few soldiers show up and they had their families out there with them so I believe it's still an actual pcs.

I just arrived at Ft. Huachuca and I have my family with me. My orders have my family authorized to accompany me. I will be doing gray eagle training not sure if that makes a difference.
