a SGT wants to transfer from AD to NG.

He has 6 MTH till ETS .... he wants to try to make SSG before getting out

Will the next tank make it harder to go NG and will he even keep his rank?

If he promotes to SSG on active duty, he owes active duty a minimum of 12 months from the date of promotion to retain that rank.
AR 600-8-19 ch 7-8.
He can do the minimum extension for that, then go to the mandatory appointment with the Reserve Component Career Counselor/In Service Recruiter (RCCC/ISR) six months before getting out to sign a Guard or Reserve contract.

That was actually rescinded a few years ago, now it's only E7-E9 who incur an AD SRR for promotion. It's still written into emilpo coding logic though, so the S1 has to manually request to promote the Soldier by sending the promotion to HRC.

He should get promoted if he can. If the guard doesn't have a spot for him to keep his rank he should look into the Reserve.

The Guard has limited slots available. MOS will make the slots more limited depending on the state. Ranks will limit it further, again depending on state.

If he’s a 25 series he could have a hard time unless the state he’s looking at has an actual signal unit.
