I am attempting to reclass and have researched every MOS i qualify for and that Im interested in. The retention NCO has told me there are 0 class seats for over 12 MOS's including 15,25,12,17, 68, and 88 series despite the in/out calls. My ETS is March and i do not wish to get out but my current MOS, 91E, is a dead-end, overstrengthed, under utilized, and rarely promoted.

The In/Out calls have nothing to do with class seats. Class seats change on a daily basis. You have to be fully eligible to reenlist, for instance DLC complete once you reach a certain rank.

I advise that you do a 12 month extension and then work on getting a class seat. You extend today and you're right back in your reenlistment window next week. 91E is a dead end MOS after E5

SPC(P) (Join to see) but if you're in your reenlistment window it's easy to request a class for a new MOS, especially if you're an initial term Soldier. You just have to start the process early, have or get good line scores, a clearance and patience to wait a few months for an MOS you'd like.

There are other opportunities. ARSOF for instance, but there is also an Allied Trade Warrant Officer, while not possessing some of the qualifications, you can apply for a waiver.

CW2 (Join to see) - I've known people to put themselves through college as welders only to find they can't come anywhere near the amount of money they did welding and fabricating trying to get a job with a degree.

CW2 (Join to see) With minimal equipment and resources, there hasn't been much welding, machining, nor fabricating.

MILPER Messages are published in a daily basis, you can say. The question I ask is: what MILPER Message are you looking in particular, or subject?

Not a big issue SPC (Join to see). There are options, just stay in touch with your career counselor and check with him/her constantly. Army requirements change constatnty!
