Can you still get your enlistment bonus if flagged for an APFT? I’m supposed to the 2nd part of 3 parts of my bonus. Do I still get it?

As long as you are still in the service you will get the bonus. The moment you are separated you do not. Ability to reenlist / get promoted do not factor in.

Unfortunately no. See AR 600-8-2, paragraph 3-1i - "A properly imposed Flag prohibits the following personnel actions unless otherwise specified in this regulation:...-Payment of enlistment bonus or selective reenlistment bonus (AR 601–280)."

The fine print should identify the stipulations imposes by a flag. Most Soldiers are now counseled on the impact of failing an APFT. MSgt Michael Smith

NG, USAR are a different horse, with that said in the regular' s PT failure is a chapter type offense. If you were flagged-1. no personnel actions are authorized. 2. You have failed your enlistment, so why should they pay you an enlistment bonus?
