You will still be waiting to attend basic training right now. The Army has met there quota for this year and they are only filling slots for next year for basic training. I have no idea when your unit is leaving for Afghanistan, but if it is within the next 6 months, you probably will not be joining them. I have heard the basic training slots are full until next February. Now there are standby slots, which means if a recruit can not ship, one of the standbys replace them. I was a standby and went earlier than my original date. If you truly wanted the other MOS you selected you can hold out until it comes available. You do not have to change your jobs. Your Asvab scores are good for 2yrs. Good luck to you.
