Does anyone have a working knowledge on how the Compassionate Branch puts you on assignment?

My S1 sent me a screenshot of the "requisition information" page on webEDAS. It shows I'm on assignment instructions to Fort Gordon's 15th Signal Brigade. I am not signal, I'm electronic warfare (17E). It also shows under DML, THS. I looked that up and it means "Trainee/Student/Patient/Hold status Personnel ACC". I was wandering if anyone would have some insight on any of this. I know at some point I'll have a clarified answer, but I would like to try and understand some of what's going on sooner rather than later. Thank you for any input!

They probably are going to make you a instructor. My assignment office cw5 Les Craig a friend of mine from Schinnen the Netherlands called me and said how would you like to be the the senior tac at WOSC? I said Les. I am not a babysitter. He called again and said how about the COMSEC custodion at the Pentagon. I said Les take my number out of your roladex. I did my tour in the beltway.

Is the purpose for compassionate?

If then approved, your assignment location is for the purpose of the compassionate assignment.
