The Army's putting together another Stryker brigade on Lewis early next year. The 3rd Brigade just got back from Iraq and won't be going anywhere again for another six months or so. There is also a brigade slated for Alaska, and one for Hawaii.

But if you have RIP in your contract, I think you're more likely to end up in a Ranger Bat. The Stryker brigades are mostly straight-leg or mechanized infantry guys as far as the 11B's are concerned. But there is a Ranger battalion here that you could probably get into.
