Frumby or ayone else,
Sorry if this is a dumb question but what are the chances of being sent to an overseas squadron, regardless of pipeline, as a first tour after flight training? The reason I ask is my wife will be finishing the last year or so of an online PhD. program that can only be done in the U.S. I wasn't sure what the procedure was. I would love to go overseas after she finished but if I ended up in Japan after RAG my wife would have to stay back in the states until she was finished with school. Thanks for your help.

Japan, as I understand, is more of a by request slot. I'm considering only Hercs with that statement. I know there are helo squadrons on "The Rock" but I don't know if they are rotational detachments or squadrons. In 3 years of doing selection boards, I sent only 2 guys to Iwakuni to fly F-18's. In other words, you have an excellent chance to stay in CONUS after the RAG. Frumby
