<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Great discussion topic <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="50951" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/50951-1sg-deyshuan-shepherd">1SG DeyShuan Shepherd</a>. Your ability to prepare after notification does not give you much time. It is best to prepare very early in our careers, not wait until there's a QMP notification.<br /><br />While everyone has a different situation (and a different reason for serving our country), it is a personal decision based on their specific situation. If there was a clear case of a mistake, they should send matters in defense; it there are no reasons to appeal and the individual wishes to retire, they have that option; they can choose to not appeal and have the board review their case and make a decision from the board.<br /><br />The QMP notice will let you know what is in your records that created the reason for the QMP notice. Just because one of your Soldiers receives a QMP notice, it does not necessarily mean they will be required to leave the service.
