In today's Military, can you survive an Article 15 or Letter of Reprimand and still have a successful career?

No. Accountability is constantly endorsed by command. Mistakes are mistakes are mistakes. mistakes are the cog in accountability that skew the outcome. and cause yes mistakes happen but they are not constantly endorse by accountability. we our holding everyones feet to the fire

Can you, or will you? You can and, as with most things, it is all in the detail. With the down size, it makes it much harder but we do not know what next week is going to bring? The Canadians decide to launch a sneak attack and invade, well all bets are off.

Nope! You'll be lucky to survive to retirement. Had a SSG buddy that had a Art 15 for some bull child support thing from over 10 years ago, as a PFC. They did not allow him to re enlist. Never another issue with him. 12 years down the drain.

They have to cull the herd somehow and if I was a leader Art 15 would be where I would start looking too. Get rid of the problem children first. Then it would be NCO-ERs, APTF Scores, and last Weapons Quals. After that....Straws.

I think it really depends on what it was for.

Patton would have never made it past 2lt in today's Army.

NO.
