Well, he is either a 13P or a 13M then, and there is Ft.Hood, Tx, Ft. Bragg, North Carolina, Ft. something, Washington, and Ft. Sill, Oklahoma (that's where I am). Mostly, everyone has been sent here, we've been here for almost 5 years now. Good luck, getting into the military is a very challenging experience, but, very rewarding in and of itself. I wish you the best.

This is technical, but this is what I found:
Deployment
In September 1997 the first US Army Command & Attack Battalion (CAB) Field Artillery (FA) unit was activated. This program previously known as the MLRS "2x9" fielded another MLRS firing battery and a Headquarters, Headquarters & Service (HHS) battery to the Division Artillery of the 1st Cavalry Division at Fort Hood, TX. This change merged these new batteries with the existing MLRS Battery, A Btry, 21st FA and the Target Acquisition Battery (TAB), B Battery, 26th FA. The new unit is now known as 1st Bn, 21st FA (1-21 FA).
This program will not be unique to 1st Cavalry Division. Over the upcoming years, fieldings will take place to all of the current "heavy" divisions within the active army. The direction to make this change was as a result of a decision made by the Vice-Chief of Staff of the Army on 29 Feb 96. The decision for this plan was put forward based on the Nov 93 release of the Legal Mix V Study with subsequent conclusions from the Army Science Board in Oct 95. The rationale was based on analysis that indicated the need for additional firepower within the division.
The next unit to be changed was the conversion of B Btry, 20th FA (MLRS) and A Btry, 26th FA (TAB) to 2-20 FA at 4th Mechanized Infantry Division, Fort Hood, TX in Jul 98. In 4QFY99, A Btry, 13th FA (MLRS) and A Btry, 39th FA (TAB) will convert to 1-39 FA at Fort Stewart, GA. After FY99 the remaining three (3) CAB fieldings were fielded with the M270A1 Launchers. These systems were remanufactured launchers that will include the Improved Fire Control System (IFCS) and Improved Launcher Mechanical System (ILMS). These units are A Btry, 38th FA (MLRS) and F Btry, 26th FA (TAB) to 1-38 FA to be fielded in FY01 in Korea; and in Germany the fieldings A Btry, 94th FA (MLRS) and C Btry, 25th FA (TAB) in FY03, and A Btry, 33 FA (TAB) and B Btry 25th FA (TAB) in FY05.
Hope it helps.

He will get orders to wherever the Army decides he will serve the needs of the Army -- so that means just about anywhere.

Anywhere including Afghanistan & Iraq, NY, NC, OK, & etc.
His Battilon assignment would narrow your fewer choices. Good luck!

You'll be stationed wherever they Army decides to send you. You may or may not be allowed to accompany him depending upon where that may be.

My best guess would be somewhere on planet Earth.
Every one of my duty stations was there.
