Can I get an article 15 under article 92 (dereliction of duty) for failing apft and ruck marches multiple times. I have failed the mentioned events multiple times and my chain of command said they will give me an article 15 under dereliction of duty for failure to maintain fitness standards.

You will be afforded an oportunity to go to Trial Defense Sevices (TDS) unless it is a summarized Art 15. Use that time to ask legal because they will give you way netter advice than anyrhing you will get off social media.

Just as you should never have to be told to get a haircut, you should never have to ask this question. Your command has given you every opportunity to remedy this deficiency and it appears you aren’t interested in improving yourself. Why did you join the military?

As stated already seek actual JAG advice before you have to sign. If you have failed multiple times the commander will take recommendations from your chain of command, while chaptering is what normally happens, UCMJ action is faster and will supply more paperwork for the chapter. To be perfectly honest continual failure to meet the standards in my book is a quick trip to civilian life with the stigma of being tossed out to assist you in job searches. If you haven't been read yet I would move heaven an earth to make sure you correct your deficiencies and pass your APFT and make all your ruck marches, its kind of a no brainer that doing that is a standard for all Infantrymen.
