Soldiers who don’t re-enlist could face involuntary early separation

The program affects soldiers who have more than three years active duty service but less than six years total service.

The Army is expanding its Enlisted Involuntary Early Separation Program.

Jim Bragg, the chief of retention and reclassification branch at Army Human Resource Command says the move “is a readiness program, not a force reduction program.”

Under the program, enlisted soldiers who choose not to re-enlist could be subject to involuntary early separation.

The program affects soldiers who have more than three years active duty service but less than six years total service.
