Awol a must read (2009)

[alabamaman]

Just curious if that's an option...

Did you hear of anybody trying to stay in? I'm sure most there just wanted a discharge and to go home, but I'm asking was the possibility even discussed by the leadership. (I'm mean, did anyone not want to be discharged, but to return to training, etc.) Do they even offer this as a possibility.

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks. I'm about to turn myself in, and I really don't want to get out.

Oh, can you read, etc. while there? What did you do all day?


I JUST RE=READ THE ORIGINAL POST, AND FOUND THIS:

"IF YOU WANT TO STAY IN, you need a damn good story about why you left, and you will be reclassed to a combat MOS (Mostly 19D), and you will remain at PCF for at least 10-12 weeks while you are awaiting orders, even then it's not guaranteed you will get to stay in. After 30 days you will be given some freedoms, allowed to talk in the chow hall, allowed to go to the PX, etc.."

Is this still valid? I'm going back (very) soon, and I want to stay in. Please help! Thanks (again!).

I don't even mention it, because you may walk in there and have only one option. The 1SG will have your file and be looking over it, and may have made up his mind before you even walk through his door. He'll ask if you have any questions and you can than bring it up.
