If your unit deploys, relocates, transfers, or is reassigned from the parent organization, you will deploy with the unit and there are no grounds for broken reenlistment commitment. If the guaranteed station inactivates and your transfer is necessary before completing your stabilization period, you will be given the choice of assignment to any other station in the Major Command (if a vacancy in MOS and grade exists). If no vacancy exists, reassignment will be according to the needs of the Army. If the guaranteed station re-designates, relocates, transfers, or deploys, you move as part of the station.
