You owe whatever time you agreed to in your contract.

You would need to get a DD Form 368, Conditional Release, signed by the Army. This is not an easy task. The way the Army looks at it is you signed a contract and made a commitment to them for 8 years. Once you complete that obligation you can go into another Branch of Service. <br />You can try though. Good Luck!

Yes, it is possible. No, you do not need to wait till enlistment. 2LT Private RallyPoint Member Sat, 05 Jan 2019 11:27:48 -0500 2019-01-05T11:27:48-05:00 Response by Sgt Aaron Kennedy, MS made Jan 5 at 2019 2:20 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/can-you-transfer-from-active-duty-army-to-active-duty-navy-in-the-middle-of-an-enlistment-contract?n=4261913&urlhash=4261913 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You would need a &quot;Conditional Release&quot; that has to go up to the General Officer level (which takes months and justification). When you say &quot;middle of an enlistment&quot; that would lean heavily into the NO category.<br />Unless you have some kind of special skill, or are being offered a &quot;too good to be true&quot; deal on the Navy side, it would be really hard to get the Army side to sign off on it.

After all I believe you have to finish contract out to enter into another. SPC David Dougherty Sat, 05 Jan 2019 20:42:23 -0500 2019-01-05T20:42:23-05:00 2019-01-05T02:18:55-05:00
