I'm in the national guard and failed 92y AIT and getting reclass to combat engineer. I didnt sign up for a combat mos . What would happen if I refused to do that MOS? Would I be able to get out . I dont want to quit and know it's the needs of the army but I really dont want that mos .

You signed up for training in the MOS and your contract states that you are not guaranteed the MOS but the training. You can separate at your ETS or you can just not show up and get kicked out.
It’s one weekend a month; 39 days out of 365 in a year. Half of your training time is doing normal Soldier stuff that you would do no matter what your MOS is. People don’t join the NG for a career, they join for the benefits. Have some fun, blow some stuff up, and take advantage of the extremely generous healthcare and tuition assistance.

Oh, you can also make sure that you fail out of every MOS they give you. Then you can get discharged and live an equally unsatisfied civilian life flipping burgers. That is, if fast food restaurants ever open back up.

My biggest question is how do you fail 92Y AIT? Ive had supply guys that couldnt tie their shoes or count to potato, but they passed AIT.

Sergeant first class I'm an old soldier from way back by MOS was Charlie 10 and none of us fail you didn't fail we didn't let the other one failed I just don't understand it. Why is the army if today kinda why is he asking can he get out of being a combat that's what you would want I would think

You signed the form, I guarantee there's a clause that says if you fail to complete the training agreed upon, then you go needs of the Army.

Another note - you went to 92Y AIT, now going to 12B, yet your profile says you're a "Field Artillery Firefinder Radar Operator"......
