Only a handful of MOS's are able to go to Fort Sam Houston. It's a moot point though, your branch manager will send you wherever they need you, and that's not going to be Fort Sam.
Further down the road if you decide to stay in, you can reenlist for a duty station of choice, but unless you're MI or a handful of medical MOS's you aren't going there.

Why are there not the usual MOSes for a post, camp Station? MPs, cooks, clerks, signal, mechanics, etc. Contracted out or civil servants, perhaps?

MAJ Ronnie Reams because there are no Brigade Combat Teams there. JBSA is the home of AMEDD, so you have a bunch of TRADOC and AMEDD schools, there's an MI Brigade, Army South, BAMC hospital, and USAREC. They still have the post support MOS's and IMCOM, but they are very small.

MAJ Ronnie Reams also branch managers reserve some of the slots there for Compassionate Reassignments for extremely critical patients who need world class level care. BAMC is one of the leading hospitals in the entire world and one of the five highest tier hospitals in the military. The other hospitals being Madigan, Walter Reed/Bethesda, Tripler, and Landstuhl

San Antonio is a great place to be. So much to do. Never been to Fort Hood, but lately, the news has not been good.
