Getting out

Post by OoNattyoO »

hello,
My boyfriend joined the army when he was just 16 and now being 18 he really hates it and its getting him down; he keeps going awol and now has 10 charges against him for playing up.(refusing to soldier). When he turned 18 he heard that there was some 3 month period where he could ask to get out, in this time he went to his sergant and he just got there was no 3 month period, which this is a lie. All i'm asking is if anyone on here knows if there is any way of my boyfriend getting out, is there any rights he has or anything.

If anyone could please get back to me can you email me on xxsugarxxbabexx@hotmail.com as i doubt ill be on here much.

Many thanks

Without wishing to sound callous, I cannot find it within me to muster the slightest grain of sympathy. It's not like the lad was pressed into service. If he has any character at all, he should stop pi$$ing around and take what's coming his way. If he wants out, that's one thing. But there are steps that need to be taken, and acting up will definitely not help his cause. In fact, it could get him in deep shyte and affect his future beyond the army.

There was a time when you had to do three years minimum before a release would even be considered. If that's the way it is now, then that's the way it is.

Personally, I feel sorry for those who have to deal with his silliness. It really does become a pain in the arse. You could do him some considerable good by talking some sense into him and telling him to grow up! Like I said...not trying to be callous, but if he wants to be all grown up one day, he's going to have to start accepting some responsibility for his own lot in life. Now would probably be a good time to begin!

At this rate, he will probaly be going "inside" before he gets outside!

The best thing is to post him to Iraq, then stick him out on patrol in the middle of bandit country, he can either learn how to be a soldier or die in the attempt.

:soldier_thumbs_up: that would sort him out, why join the army if your not going to like the job, you get 6 months where you can stay/leave dont you...? more than enough time to decide if you want to stay/can hack it.
