There are several rules of thumb that will be the jumping off point for summer rotations. Branch Qualified Majors with at least 24 months BQ time and over 24 months are eligible to move.

Officers who have not had an overseas tour or it is seven or more years since your last overseas tour are vulnerable for an overseas tour.
All joint assignments are nominative and go through a board process.
