Currently I'm on "Deployment" in Poland with my Company (More of a TDY though). But before I left reenlisted for Alaska. Still don't have orders and I was given a Report date of June. My Battalion is Deploying next year around March and I'd rather deploy with them than PCS to Alaska. What are the chances or what do I Have to do to Deploy with my Battalion?

You will have to go to your Career Counselor and sign a memorandum waiving your reenlistment option and requesting that your assignment is deleted. The Army isn't required to delete your assignment, so I hope you mean that your report date is June 2018 and not June 2017.

A heads up, (Trained, reenlistment NCO here), you will be on Needs of the Army, Option 1, at that point, once you have that assignment deleted, as you are not upholding that contract. Good luck to you, though and I hope it works out for the best for you.

Whatever direction you choose to go, based off the ideas that the other NCO's have provided, make sure you get it started ASAP. If you wait too long, HRC won't delete the assignment.

Might also try the Army Enlisted Assignment Exchanges. DA Form 4187. There are a couple of big kickers with this method. See attached

You can try and get those orders (even though you dont have any in hand, yet) revoked. But, since it was part of your re-enlistment, it may not happen. Talk with your S-1, to see what your options are.
