My wife and I are both graduating in 2018. I'm army dental HPSP, she is non-military medical residency (family med). We looked at what duty stations would be best for her to apply to a family med residency nearby. I'm pretty sure I find out in December, but she finds out in March.
Has anyone gone through this or something similar? Does the army take this into consideration when assigning duty stations? Is there anything I can do to increase the chances I get stationed at a certain site? Is there any flexibility in changing assignments (if she happens to Match at a different location with a nearby duty station)? If we end up in the same place and I do a 1 year AEGD, is there any chance of me staying at that site for the next two years (until she finishes her 3-year residency?).
Sorry for the laundry list of questions, but starting to stress a little about this. If anyone has any experience with this or knows a good source of info to direct me, it would be much appreciated.
Happy New Year all
