I Got Kick Out The Army Under Chapter 18 Height and Weight Failure. My Re Code On My DD 214 Is A 3. How Long Do I Have To Wait To Get Back In the Army? Asking Because I Seen Some Information Online Saying I Can Get Back In As Little As 3 Months But Recruiter’s Are Telling Me 6 Months

The recruiters are correct. Work on your body and visit them when it is time and drive on, Soldier.

Right now you probably won't get back in.

Minimum 6 months. But continue to exercise and eat properly and keep checking in with them, if for no other reason they see your progress. You'll need to show them that you can lose the weight and keep it off. It'll be tough, but if you are serious about it you'll be ok.

If the recruiter saying 6 months then it’s 6 months or get another recruiter opinion but in the mean time workout hard!

Check what AR 600-210 says. I recall it used to be 180 days. But you must pass the ht/wt at meps.
