The problem I would see would be that for almost any of those you records will be flagged and when you go to the SF recruiter he is going to tell you sorry.
I would go to the unit you are getting sent to (used to be up for world wide assignment but usually ended up in an infantry unit on Stewart, Benning, or Lewis), do good things there (for 6 months), get with the commander to get you flag lifted, make sure you tell him you intentions upon getting the flag lifted whether that be back to Batt or SFAS, then persue your dream.

You're right, that's typically the reasons for RFS. My reason for it was having a device in a designated area I was not supposed to have it. They came down hard on me for it and my squad leader is genuinely shocked at the outcome of it. I was still in the wrong though, so I accept my punishment.
Awesome advice, thank you very much!
