Are you wanting to prepare a memorandum stating that the soldier in question is reformed and learned his lesson? If it&#39;s in his restricted file, in theory the promotion board should not see it, although I am somewhat skeptical about that in reality. What rank was the soldier when he got the Article 15 and how long ago did it occur?

Both pertain to punishment not guilt or innocence. Suspension is pretty common and it delays punishment for a specific period and if the Soldier does not commit another action punishable during that period it is automatically set aside. Remission involves setting aside a punishment that has already been imposed. It rarely happens, the only time I have seen it was after a Change of Command MSG Gary Eckert Tue, 29 Oct 2019 10:14:35 -0400 2019-10-29T10:14:35-04:00 Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Oct 29 at 2019 11:20 AM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/can-a-memorandum-of-record-be-submitted-on-a-soldier-who-is-on-an-hqda-promotion-list-over-a-fg-art-15-that-was-suspended-remitted?n=5178631&urlhash=5178631 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>What is supposed to happen is that once the issue is cleared up the commander has to send a memorandum with their recommendation to reinstate or remove the Soldier from the promotion list. Company, battalion, and brigade commander all send it, along with the request to removed the flag. At the next STAB the board will remove or reinstate the Soldier onto the promotion list.
