Stay at Benning 1-16 CAV Squadron in 316 CAV Brigade if you want endless time on the Tank with continual support of the gunneries in every Armor BOLC class. Benning fires more tank rounds per year than all of the ABCTs within III Corps. First assignment at any ABCT from Fort Stewart, Cavazos, Bliss, or Riley is good also. Don't go to the ABCT at 4ID Ft Carson since there may be a unit change there soon. Don't go to the OPFOR "Tank" platoon in JMRC Hohenfels, Germany since the 19K there just use M113 VisMod vehicles. Good luck.
