I've been in since December of 2003 and am an 0341- 2 combat deployments (2nd one I was meritoriously promoted to Cpl), good conduct medals, good marks, etc. I re-enlisted to be an SOI instructor and was promoted to Sgt in Feb of 2008. My wife and I were having severe problems (she wanted to finish grad school, but my work schedule wouldn't allow for it, among other things) and it reflected negatively on my work. My fault, I know. Anyway, my command didn't like me too much, and I honestly can't blame them, but one day I had duty and 2 students walked off their post of guarding gear. I was upstairs at the time and a SgtMaj walked in and saw unguarded gear and ripped my head off. Another instructor went to our command and told him I couldn't have relieved them because I was upstairs, but by then it didn't matter- they wanted me out. I was given 2 NJPs for relieving the students and then failing to re-post and given a reduction in rank to Cpl. It was signed by the Battalion Co, who signed the line of the NJP stating the offenses were minor and properly punishable. He also wrote on the fitrep that "MRO can recover if he wants to". This was March of 2009.
I requested to go back to my old infantry unit and was put in S4 while my package went through. I went to my infantry unit and deployed Jan of this year and just got back. My question is: is there any hope of me picking back up Sgt before my eas, which is 01/27/2012? Is there anywhere to lat move that will accept me?
