Failed four promotion boards. Getting barred prior to my four year mark.
I’ve heard different things: that I may get chaptered for “failure to promote” or something along the lines. If that true how does it work. The main question I have is how long do I have left in the service. Any kind of reference material would be appreciated.

I really hate seeing stuff like this because it makes me feel like your NCO's and you have failed yourself. I never like seeing a soldier get forced out because of stuff like this. I can guarantee you your CSM doesn't like it either especially if you are a motivated soldier especially a grunt. I hope your COC still give you a shot I don't know the full regs but after being barred and you are given another shot at a board I would fully recommend you go full hoah and get guidance from past specialist you know that have passed the board.

You'll be reviewed at 90 and 180 days. After the second review you should be separated under any applicable section of 635-200. If none apply then you will ETS with a bar in place and receive an RE3 code.
AR 635-200 is your separation reference. AR 601-280 is your bar reference.
AR 635-200 is your separation reference. AR 601-280 is your bar reference.

The NCOs should be able to answer this question.

SSG James J. Palmer IV aka "JP4" congratulations on being on the promotion list. I figured an NCO answering would be better.
