Why would he want to cheat the system?\n\nThat would be wrong, let him do his time like everyone else does. When he signed up, he knew deployment was a possibility. Support him and be proud of him because he is doing what he promised he would.\n\nIf he stays there for a year, he would be able to come home for 15 days without counting travel time.\nOnly way he would get to come early would be after an injury that would prevent him from doing his job (loss of a limb, trigger finger, mental problems, etc) and trust me, you don't want that.\n\nWish the best for him. I was there for a year too, trust  me it is not that bad.

The odds are, you won't get hit in the stop loss.  But there is a chance.  I've never heard of anyone getting stuck in for more than a year past their EAS--End of Active Service, but I suppose it's theoretically possible to be required to serve the full eight.  They do try to work with people though.  They know that you only expected to serve the original contract and to hold a large number of people in service past that will create a lot of discontent and morale problems, so they try to keep it as short a time as possible.  Right now there is no stop loss in effect and odds are not for one to be started.  The US is trying to reduce the number of troops in war zones, so it is unlikely they will need to force people to stay beyond their original contract.

Well a few things can happen. Alot of it actually depends on the military unit they went AWOL from. First off, as soon as we change thier duty status to AWOL, we hold all pay and allowances... we inventory all property they leave behind within 24 hours. The Army has a group of military police called "AWOL Apprehension" that are informed and a notice goes thru NCIC to all law enforcement agency's. After 10 days we send thier parents a letter explaining that they are AWOL and explaining duty and honor. At the 31 day mark, we begin processing the paperwork to drop them from the military rolls and seperate them from the Army for desertion. They are given a seperation code on thier official records and DD214 that codes them as a dessertor.  With that code, it is difficult for them to apply to any college, they will be turned down for all state and federal jobs and they cannot recieve alot of different loans... to include alot of consumer loans.  Life at that point kinda sucks for them... and usually so does thier pay.  McDonalds and Burger King have even started denying them employment. If you can't get a job at Burger King... well that rests on it's own merits....lol.

Crap!  I love these answers.\n\nHe is National Guard.  After AIT, he will return home.  He will be required to do his one weekend a month, and his two weeks a year (normally in the summer).\n\nIF his unit is activated, then he will be required to do the mission.  If the unit is activated to go to Iraq or Afganistan, then that is where he will go.  If his unit is activated to perform a mission for the state, then that is what he will do.\n\nIn any case, he will return home after AIT.  You need to find out from him THEN if his unit is to be activated.

Dont fret first of all your liscence is still valid for as long as you hold a military ID card. I had the same thing happen to me while stationed @ Cp. Carrol. Here is another thing you can do when home on leave go to the DMV and ask for an extension on your D L they will grant it because you are military.It would be good also to go ahead and renew it when you come home to avoid this again.

the only moves the military pays for are  pcs  permanent change  of  station. and they will move you back to your hometown after   you finish your time. they dont pay when you decide to leave the service member. thats on you to foot the bill not them. the service member isnt moving so they dont care

Oh boy, I've got terrible news and I hate to even write this - but there is some good news, kind of. First, everything finance has said to date is correct. For pay purposes, only active time can be counted, hence his 4 years + 18 months would put his pay at 5 and 1/2 years approximate. For retirement purposes, they will count the whole stint. (This is the difference between his BPED and BASD dates). It sounds like the initial PSB screwed the pooch on this one. Worse yet, it would also change his eligibility for certain bonuses - so this all sounds legit. Now the semi-good news. If he goes to his finance office, he can have those repayments extended out further (in fact, they can even spread them out over the rest of his contract) under a financial hardship request. His chain of command will have to approve it - but that will be a rubber stamp (or should be). If you need immediate relief (i.e. they already took the money and you are short for bills and what not) you can go to your installation ACS (Army Community Service) and apply for an AER (Army Emergency Relief) loan. His command normally has to approve that as well - but you should be able to process it through his rear detachment. This is terrible that someone's error can so negatively effect you - and no - it sure doesn't seem right. Unfortunately, it is what it is and I wish you the very best. Thank you both for your service.\n\nI would check 2 additional locations for relief. One I recommend, the other I would be wary to do. #1 - have him notify his chain of command FIRST, and then file an IG complaint and request relief from the debt through them. (I imagine your command is going to support this action). The other action is congressional. The problem with a congressional inquiry (writing your congressman for action) is that it takes a significant amount of time as it will first get routed to his unit and bounce around before it finally lands on the PSB and Finance. This also tends to irritate folks beyond all belief and can get your husband a reputation - not all that positive. I would wait to pull the congressional trigger as a last minute, desparate shot. Use the IG and Finance first. I can't make any promises, but this sounds like the best shot. Unfortunately, I have known a few soldiers who have gone through similar "corrections" and have never seen the debt forgiven. They will spread it out as much as possible, but I think you may be up against a long shot. I truly apologize - it shouldn't be like this.

If yes, what's your current address, phone number, and place employment?................  There's gotta be a law against military desertion. Otherwise, before any conflict there'd be a rush of servicemen leaving. Flipping a burger/pushing paper's different than being shot at.

I won't stoop low and say this is a dumb question but it is for your S-1.  I can't even remember if it's actually in a regulation.  You may have already been told this but I believe it's 5 days before you start leave.  If you're having problems with your S-1, see if your MILPERS,PSB or Transition Center can answer that question.  They should have a memo regulating the timeline for clearance.  You'll have to clear your unit before the installation so you'd probably start clearing before the 5 days.  But again, I don't think there's a regulation just command policy memo's.

I am a Full Time Staff Operations and Training Specialist for and Army Reserve Engineer Battalion as well as a SSG on the Reserve side.  NO, they cannot deploy you for the same operation three months after you get back.  The NG recruiter is trying to get his quota.  The only way they can deploy you that soon is to change the Operation all together or change the Title of the deployment, which doesn't look like either are going to happen anytime soon.  The reserves works like the guard and it is 24 months in a 5 year time period.  You are most likely safe until your 5 yr anniversary of the day you went on orders.

Talk to the Air Force.  they may garnish his wages.

you will receive an article 15 and be subjected to reduction in rank and pay and have to perform extra duty either in iraq or upon return from your deployment. my husband said you can do extra duty over there as well and they also have a prison in kuwait, so you can do jail time.

Sometimes when you get these services, you get the bottom of the barrel. I apologize on their behalf. Call up your local VFW, or USO agency, and I bet they would have someone who would be glad to re-fold it for you.
