So last week I received EPMD PCS projection it's in the same duty station, I figured I'm going to the tradoc side on this installation. Well this week I received pinpoint EPMD projection and it states I'm going to the current brigade I'm in. It seems odd. Petty much it's the same orders I got in 2019 that brought me to my current brigade. I have reached out to the branch manager and he said that usually individuals don't receive PCS orders to the same brigade they usually just get stabilize and for me to speak to my chain of command about an inter post transfer to the tradoc side and that it doesn't involve him. I've also asked my retention NCO and she has no idea why this would happen. Is there any advise/guidance anyone can give me on what to do. Also my YMAV has already been reset to my ETS, my projected to PCS is next yeah 10 June.

I think that my first stop, on Ft Sill would be at Corps G-1. Look and see who the issuing command of the orders are. If it is an on post within the brigade transfer, they went about it in an add way, so someone at the issuing headquarters knows about it.
It MIGHT be something pretty sweet, or it might have been your unit putting you on orders to keep you from getting put on orders.
Good Luck.

I would get your leadership involved and reach out to G-1 in regards to transferring to where you want to be.

SFC Jason Boyd usually has better insight on these types of questions - it may not hurt to reach out to him if he doesn't see this post.
