How can I help defend myself against a chapter for patterns of misconduct? What impact can the chapter have on my transition?

Hello everyone,

I'm in need of some quick answers to my issue.

Once upon a time I was wrongfully accused of something I did not do as an E-4. It was a sharp case worst thing ever!

Shortly after being placed under investigation I was moved units within the regiment by order of the CG under a policy for anyone that is being accused of sharp cases must be intra squadron moved at the least.

From here I did my best to keep my head low and do what I was told unfortunately the investigation lasted for over a YEAR and a HALF!!

It destroyed me emotionally mentally and physically at the molecular level

because of this eventually I started to slip up under the pressure and developed sleeping problems causing me to be habitually tardy or late to mainly P.T formation/ FTR.

I have since been given 2 ART 15's for this offense alone (both company)

The investigation finally ended not to long ago charges dropped

I was elated for a brief moment

I started shaping my act up piecing myself back together slowly but surely I still am suffering from the torment of everything however

I was only late a couple more times and significantly improved my punctuality however my command is sick of me they want to punish me at every turn even with my improvements they said its not fast enough

***They want to go with PATTERNS OF MISCOUNDUCT CHP 14-12(b)

I take responsibility for my actions however its only been a month since knowing I was in the clear and they will not allow me to do a rehabilitative move or transfer which would really be beneficial to me since this unit I have come to them as an issue and now only leaving as an issue I have only been afforded the opportunity to have my flaws highlighted because I have always been "high visibility".

My contract is up really soon but they do not care to retain me or give me a fair rehabilitative chance

Questions:



Can I complain and reasonably fight for procedure/ ethical reasoning?

What benefits will I for-go with this chapter other than the G.I bill?

Will I be allowed to sell my leave Days?

What are any defensible options I am missing?

I have a secret clearance will I be able to keep this as it is still good for another 5 years



FACTS to consider:

The command is going for General under Honorable conditions discharge

I do not have 6 years of service to request an admin board

I hold a secret Clearance however it had been suspended since the initiation of the investigation
