What are my chances of re-enlisting into the Army with an RE Code 3 and Misconduct Chapter?
I was discharged last month for patterns of misconduct; 14-12b. I had a sharp case open (I was the victim) and that was when my military career took a turn for the worse. I began to act out because I was suffering from PTSD due to the SHARP case. I received a lot of counseling’s but never got an Article 15. I really want to get back in and already started talking to a recruiter who’s the commander of his recruiting station, and says he can get me back in. I would just have to wait 6 months. What do y’all think?

A few members did RP the service of updating the "about" section of RE Code page to help those in the future. It's super helpful Sandra Rose

LTC Kevin B., I understand you wanting to help them help themselves, but the Re Code about page SSG Carlos Madden shared is a more vetted landing page than a list of threads with the same questions and mostly unvaluable responses. There's also a link to such threads in the about page.

If the Recruiter is the commander of his Recruiting Station, you have your answer.
If that was good info, it may benefit you to obtain statements from your supervisor and coworkers addressing each of the negative items in your packet to aid with reenlisting, and in case reenlisting doesn't turn out in your favor and you need to upgrade your discharge.
Your discharge will NOT be automatically upgraded after a period of time. There are two possible ways to get the discharge upgraded when you leave the service.
a. Army Discharge Review Board (AR 15-180).
b. Army Board for Correction of Military Records (AR 15-185): Considers applications to upgrade a discharge issued by a General Court-Martial or a discharge based on “error or injustice.”. Filing must be within 3 years, although a waiver may be made in the interests of justice.
c. You may obtain the necessary information at: http://arba.army.pentagon.mil/adrb.htm.
d. Prior to leaving the Army, you should try to obtain statements from military personnel regarding your good duty performance, initiative, attitude, and other appropriate statements.
e. Other agencies empowered to upgrade a discharge include the Judge Advocate General, the Secretary of the Army, and the Army Clemency Board. You may also seek an Exemplary Rehabilitation Certificate from the U.S. Department of Labor, ATTN: METR, MANPOWER ADMINISTRATION, Washington, DC. under certain circumstances.
f. Use your local VA office to assist in upgrading your discharge. Your local VA office can also inform you of your VA benefits eligibility.
Paragraph 14-12b. The soldier's conduct exhibits a pattern of discreditable involvement with civilian authorities or a pattern of conduct prejudicial to good order and discipline

Yes, I was on my phone responding and didn't scroll far enough down, but saw that you had already answered that in your original post when I moved to my PC. I edited my original post.
