Is there anyway to ensure I get Korea on my first duty station?

SSG (Join to see) I will have to find my initial entry contract from 1988. It clearly states US Army Station of choice option Fort Lewis, Washington. It was the ONLY thing I could get written into my contract but it was the only deal breaker for me. I would not sign unless I got the guarantee of fort Lewis

That was back in 1988. That’s not an option anymore. You enlist and name 3 preferences, and 99% of the time, you don’t get any of them. You are needs of the army. So before you go down voting a comment because you think you are right, know what you are talking about first. Times have changedSGT Robert Wager

SSG (Join to see) fair enough, I removed my down vote.
