I have seen it happen too many times, in fact, it's rare to not see it happen, when a Soldier of any rank decides to ETS, and their unit tries to interrogate them. If they do not give in by reenlisting, their leadership automatically puts said individual on all details in an attempt to "milk" the remaining time left to serve.

You say you saw it happen too many times, what did you do about it? I do not condone that behavior whatsoever. You will see that mentality shift SGT Chris Hill, as we continue to shape the force to the needed size we will all see many transition out and chances are the same Soldiers you saw acting in this manner are going to be the ones identified to leave (without a choice).

I worked at the transition point t Ft Benning for a couple of years up until about a year ago. After speaking to many Soldiers leaving active duty, I can say it happens, but I don't think its fair to say it happens all the time. There are also units that are very supportive of Soldiers leaving active duty. Many Soldiers chose their PL or CO as the reenlisting officer to conduct the oath of enlistment for them enlisting into the Reserve component.
You're right it shouldn't happen at all, they have fulfilled their obligation and are free to move on.
