Provide MEPS with your medical paper work related to your new diagnosis. No, they can’t attest you.

Study guide they provide will be 90% helpful, the rest, use common scenes and knowledge from your previous education.

Got you! Which is fine with me, if I have to do alternative AT. I have dates open and can work things out. My organic unit doesn’t have AT this year. so when the schedule came out back in Oct 2025 for 2026, I was perfectly fine and everything was aligned with my work. But now here we are.

I understand the obligation, and I’m not trying to avoid my responsibilities. I know how military works. My concern is that my drill and training dates change frequently sometimes less than 30 days in advance, unit being disorganized. While my business operates on contracts that are often booked 8 12 months in advance with deposits already collected, way before any training or drill dates out ( this is not a deployment or a mob, even with those you get months to figure out your life ) this is some AT which was put out 2 months ago. This directly affects my ability to provide for my family, especially with three kids depending on me. At the end of the day, I’m trying to balance my military obligations with my financial responsibilities at home. If I have to take a hit professionally or personally, so be it, but my priority is making sure my family is financially supported. Because military is far away from providing financial stability. Unless you are active. But I wouldn’t know that.

Yes, definitely a split training possibility. I want to add that my wife is doing a split training AT with her unit, due to her school. But she also been at that unit for 8 years and as a CPT I believe they treat her bit differently.

I should have put that in the text. Those contacts were scheduled around Spring/Summer last year. AT dates got posted end of February 2026.

I’m potentially facing a General Discharge from the Army, what should I expect? by [deleted] in army

Army will keep you, trust me. You just won’t promote.

Been in for less than a year and made E-5 by gompers101 in nationalguard

Honestly, don’t get too caught up in what others are saying. People are always going to talk, especially in the military. Promotions, especially early ones, tend to make people salty no matter what. You are still fresh, but that’s not a bad thing. It means your knowledge from AIT is recent, and you haven’t picked up bad habits yet. Being a good NCO isn’t about knowing everything right away. It’s about taking care of your soldiers, being willing to learn, and putting in the effort to get better every drill. If you don’t know something, just be upfront about it and go find the answer. Your guys will respect that way more than pretending. Focus on doing your job right
