What happened to assignment SWAPS? Do they still exist? Should there be a website for this?

Remember when if you got orders for somewhere and you knew another Joe who wanted to go there and wanted to where they were you could swap with them if you were the same MOS and skill level?

Does this still happen? There should be a website you could go on and see this information daily.

It can still happen but it would be a branch matter. There are many variables that must be considered such as dwell time, SQI's and ASI's, EFMP status, etc.... I think soldiers do not have enough control over assignment choices which I have always found hypocritical since our senior leaders always emphasize seeking a variety of assignments. I was in divisional units for 15 years while others sat in TDA slots because they got in the clique.
