I signed an active duty contract for 4 years. Is it possible to go to army reserve within 2 years?

Question

I want to be stationed at Fort McCoy in Wisconsin. Im currently stationed at Fort Benning, GA. My mos is 11B infantry. I heard there is a way to trade the last 2 years of my contract to go there. Is this possible?

Answer

Check with higher ups at Fort Benning,

Answer

I know for the AF there's sometimes an option to trade 2 years of AD for 4 years of guard/reserve.  It all depends on if the gaining unit needs the extra body and if the losing unit can afford the loss.
