<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>A counseling is non punitive. Corrective action can be construed as punishment if administered inappropriately. Speak to JAG and thank you for your service.CSM Darieus ZaGaraTue, 24 Apr 2018 12:59:16 -04002018-04-24T12:59:16-04:00Response by SGT Joseph Gunderson made Apr 24 at 2018 2:05 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>It is not double jeopardy. Corrective training/action is not punishment. If you are late to formation, your NCO can give you a counseling and have you show up early for a week in order to train you to show up on time and at the same time your PL can recommend that you receive a summarized art 15 because you make a habit of showing up late. Usually, or at least what I always did, was wait until I have three or so counselings that deal with negative actions in a certain time frame, usually 30-60 days, and if those happen then I would recommend an Art 15 on the grounds of pattern of misconduct and more than likely I'll get that through. Getting an Art. 15 for one offense, unless it is pretty damning, usually doesn't happen.SGT Joseph GundersonTue, 24 Apr 2018 14:05:08 -04002018-04-24T14:05:08-04:00Response by SFC J Fullerton made Apr 24 at 2018 2:53 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If done correctly, no it is not. Example: Drunk on duty- Company Grade Article 15, 14 & 14. Counseling & corrective action- referred to ADAPCP. One is judgment and punishment for the crime, the second is to address the contributing factors. conditions, and behavior that resulted in the crime.SFC J FullertonTue, 24 Apr 2018 14:53:06 -04002018-04-24T14:53:06-04:00Response by SGM Bill Frazer made Apr 24 at 2018 5:10 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Way way too vague- A counseling statement with CORRECTIVE action, is not construed to be punishment but as CORRECTIVE Action. An Art15 is punishment after an investigation concludes you did violate UCMJ. Our talk is cheap, you have the right to see JAG at any time, and quite frankly- they are the only ones who can help you in legal matters. Get off your 4th POC and go see them, with your paperwork in hand.SGM Bill FrazerTue, 24 Apr 2018 17:10:34 -04002018-04-24T17:10:34-04:00Response by CWO3 Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 24 at 2018 7:09 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Nope...totally double jeopardy....can't do it.....unconstitutional...you have rights....demand trial by court martial and you'll walk....<br /><br />All of that advice was sarcasm and probably shouldn't be followed. You should go talk to JAG. They can advise you of what your best COA is. Or if you don't trust them, pay for a lawyer off post who specializes in military law.SGT David T.Wed, 25 Apr 2018 12:32:58 -04002018-04-25T12:32:58-04:00Response by MSG(P) Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 25 at 2018 12:39 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>It depends on if you have been given a council on the issue before and the severity of your action. A double jeopardy doesn't really exist as far as counseling statements go, as you can be counselled by different people for the same issue.SGT Patrick DanielsonSat, 22 Dec 2018 10:19:39 -05002018-12-22T10:19:39-05:00Response by 1SG Private RallyPoint Member made Jan 14 at 2019 6:04 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Yes, you can receive both. Make the changes you need to make, so that will be your final Article 15 and negative counseling statement.
