Can commands share restricted info in OMPF?

Can a commander from an old unit send or disclose information about an article 15 that is in the restricted portion of my OMPF to my new command?

This sounds like a JAG question

It depends on who it's disclosed to at your new command. Your new commander has a valid need to know the kind of person they are getting.

Your old command can't go ahead and share that. However, if it's requested as part of an investigation, the request is sent directly to iperms. This would be similar to your previous command forwarding your previous NCOER, which is unauthorized as well under the same regulation

No. An item in your restricted fiche of your OMPF is not allowed to be shared by anyone, unless it is requested as part of an investigation. As SFC Private RallyPoint Member said, that request must be sent directly to the personnel who handle iPERMS and OMPF - Army HRC.

If the JAG gave you homework there is more to this story then you telling. While the actual Article 15 may be restricted the underlying misconduct may not. For example, if your Commander wanted to separate you based on the misconduct and it was determined you would receive a rehabilitative transfer, prior to being discharged, it would be reasonable to notify the gaining Commander about the misconduct so he can determine whether you have overcome the deficiency.
