Default Any Army Reservist in Houston?

I'll be back from Iraq by the end of FEB and plan to move to Houston around early June to attend SAM. I'll need to find another unit to transfer to. What kind of units are in the area? I'm a 63B (Wheel Mech) so I can go nearly anywhere, but I would prefer to NOT be in another PSYOP unit.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I have ASI: H8 (Recovery Operations) aka Wrecker Operator, so if I could find a unit with a wrecker that would be a plus.

63B is the designator for Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) Wheeled Vehicle Mechanic. Nearly every unit needs a Mechanic.

I'm in a Psychological Operations right now. They are they the ones that drop the leaflets and use loudspeakers to "Win the hearts and minds."

Cool. I'm headed back to Warhorse soon. I've heard they got quite a bit of snow.
