ARNG 09S wants to opt out

[rppearso]

I am an 09S, and I notified my OCS 0 phase commander that I no longer wanted to be there and she said she was not going to fight me on my decision. I submited my letter of disenrollment and did not show up for guard and have not heard anything. I am injured on my right anckle and morbidly overweight (32% body fat), I dont ever plan on returning to guard, but if for some reason I get called to go to AIT, I believe they can not send me if I drasticly exceed body fat standards and PT failures or am noncurrant on PT, I also have an incomplete medical. Is there anything the ARNG can do to me, like say a year from now, I dont want to be getting calls way later on saying I have to show up for something, I want to make sure all of the loose ends are tied up now. Thank you in advance for the help.

Did you already attend BCT? Have you received any money from the Army?

I have attended BCT but have not recived any money from the army (ie bounus, college etc) except a 400$ class which I would be willing to pay back if nessicary. If they call me for the 400$ check I wont care, I just dont want to show up to anything.

Eventually they will just discharge you, other than honorable.

As I understand it, it is suppost to be a defective enlistment agreement. "If for any reason you do not pass OCS you get a defective enlistment agreement" not that an oth hon would hurt me (as I will have a PE license by the time all of this catches up with me) but I probably need to talk to JAG. If anybody knows the forms to fill out for the discharge I can find the regulation that lays out my right to a defective enlistment agreement and I can take it to personal (or who ever is in charge of out processing).

I think that depends on when you signed your contract. New contracts essential return you to the enlisted ranks from whence you came. If you are not MOSQ'd the Army will find you an MOS (88M's are very big right now) and you will go to AIT - if you want to do it the right way and serve out your contract. You can, as suggested earlier, simply stop going to drills, which it appears you have, and then take an OTH. I simply can't believe an OTH can't have any consequences. Tons of jobs, private sector included, do background checks on applicants and do so to ensure reliability, stability, etc. An OTH can't give them a good feeling. Plus, at 32% BF some PT might not hurt. I'm not being mean or anything I'm just suggesting that there must have been something that attracted you to the Guard. I say ruck up and march on.

I got out because after I finished BCT which by the way was a complete nightmare I found out that OCS was a second BCT, and I am never going to put myself thought anything that even sort of resembles BCT again. Also I found out that in aviation once I finish OCS and flight school my contract gets automaticly renewed for 6 more years making my 6 year sign on possibly in to 12 years. Plus only one weekend a month sounds like not much but if you have a civilian job that turns in to a 12 day work week, which is a little to much for me. It sounds like I need to talk to JAG, the military is an organization that condones hazing and it is an extream burden just going to drill, when I was being treated like a second class citizen (anyway thats my opinion, other people are different and I respect that). I got the 32% body fat on purpose to get out, so that way if they jacked me around I would only have to stay in for 6 months and I would be ineligable for AIT/OCS.
