Got a DUI. What can I do to stay in?

To add to my previous statement: We are human. We fuck up. It's in our nature. But there are things that we fuck up on that we do, in fact, have control of. Getting a DUI is one of those things. You are a Leader. A Leader of Soldiers. How many damn times have you received a briefing to not drink and drive? How many times have you told your Soldiers not to drink and drive? Normally, this is where I would say something along the lines of "how you gonna look at your Soldiers and tell them not to drink and drive then you go and do it?" This. This right here is now the PERFECT training tool you have to teach your Soldiers on WHY they should NOT do this dumb shit. By no means am I saying that I am free from Sin. I can say that I have learned from the mistakes of my past. Will you be able to do the same? Can you do the same?

Well, based on the SOFA agreement, who gets to nail you will be between the Germans and the Army. Honestly, prepare for both. You're gonna lose driving privileges. You're GONNA get an Article 15 and quite possibly a GOMOR. You may lose rank. This is gonna hurt you hard. It should hurt. Take the pain you about to get and move forward.

Other than that....STOP. CEASE. SEEK LAWYER.

Whether or not you are retained in the Army has a lot to do with your command's (General and Colonel) policy toward DUI. Expect a GOMOR at the least that will affect your future promotions. If you were a SSG right now that would be a QMP notice that absolutely would be the end of your career.
