Will my airborne duty assignment orders get deleted?

I have orders to go to JBER, Alaska after attending ABN school. If I do not graduate will my orders get canceled?

Doubtful... there's tons of non Airborne assignments there...

One of three things will happen:

1) You don't graduate Airborne and you still get sent to JBER and assigned to a Non Airborne unit.

2) You don't graduate Airborne and they delete your orders and send you somewhere else.

3) You graduate Airborne and move to JBER and enjoy jumping out of planes.

As for the first two, no one will really know except the Cadre at Airborne School and those at HRC.

Yes they will. Even though you are TDY Enroute, all Airborne training are required to return to home station to clear. If you don't graduate your orders are deleted. If you're an IET Soldier you are a holdover until the Army gives you a new assignment. Possibly JBER, depending on your MOS, but most likely something else.
