I just received a 6105 because I failed the CFT ( Combat fitness test).
I'm currently working on writing a rebuttal due to he nature of what took place.
I read the order MCO 6100.13A and on Table 1-1 administrative summary it says that I will not be eligible for reenlistment. I will be due for reenlistment next year and I plan on running another CFT next year before I submit my package. I've been in the USMC for 6 years now and I've never failed anything or had any kind of negative paper work. I apparently had a bad day, but I was also isolated while doing my ammo can lifts. I've been working so hard putting my MECEP package and with this I know that's out of the question. I plan on doing 20 years, but I would like some insight because my command is unsure and I keep hearing two different things. I would like to prepare myself if I wont be able to stay in because of this speed bump.

You re enlistment package is based off of recommendations all the way up your chain of command. I got out of the corps in 2011 and I know re enlistments have only gotten stricter. Did you receive an adverse fitrep? Corps has always been big on fitness, failing a pft as a Sgt along with an adverse fitrep could very well be the end of things as you will likely also not get selected for promotion. In the meantime, the Army is taking prior service so not all hope is lost. Once you get over the initial culture shock, it's not that bad trust me.

Yes I will receive a adverse fitrep from this. Its kind of upsetting that one bump in the road can destroy everything you have worked so hard for, but I guess that's what makes the Marine Corps.
Thing is I failed because of the judgement of someone who does not like me. This is why I'm writing a rebuttal.

Sgt (Join to see) sounds like someone has it out for you. My advice would be to be a face in the crowd, not THE face in the crowd.
