In any case, he would not be officially discharged (with Honorable Discharge) in hand until January 2008. Check it out and let me know what happens. Also, feel free to ask me any other questions you may have...I was a Warrant Officer in the Army for just over 10 years, so I may be able to shed some light on your concerns. Good luck!!!

BTW...this is in no way intended to defend Bush, as I share your sentiment with regards to him!!!!



I already checked. What they have apparantly done is turn his IRR time into more AR time, thus they aren't "keeping him past his commitment" but it still ups his chances of getting deployed again.

Thanks for alerting me to that avenue, but unfortunately, I've already explored it.
