Gentlemen,
I was referred to this board by CPTAUSRET over at SOCNET, and have a question regarding being a non-select that GREENHAT suggested I ask (very, very carefully and politely) on this board.
The question regards O's (uh, me) who are non-selects because of SARS, and/or potentially psych. I am hesitant to post specifics in a public forum because I am unsure how much I can say about SARS/psych. I believe I can discuss it's existance, but not the specific scenario or interview.
If I reattend SFAS down the road as an EM/NCO instead of as an O, will the board view this in a negative light?
I do not intend to be shady, secretive or vague, but I am attempting to tread carefully since I am fully aware that there are a lot of stripes/rockers/stars and oak leafs on this forum. I know exactly what my outprocessing brief said, and I know exactly where I made my mistakes. However if this is an "ingrained" personality trait (My assessor did not know) I do not want to waste the Cadre's time (and Army's dime) if the same negative characteristic would appear again.
Admins if I am out of line, please delete immediately. I did use search and gathered the relevent info.
Gentlemen, thanks for your time and consideration. I would greatly appreciate any insights via PM if that is appropriate and possible.
For reference/background the original question was posted NOV 05 at socnet under the Special Forces Forum with the title :"Officer to Enlisted Question"
