At the time, it was, because in my case the real deal was that the commander was someone I didn't want to work for because he wouldn't let me do anything to improve the mission. You can't just say that....so I left out the fact that the drive wasn't worth it to me because of the mission.<br /> <br />How far do you drive to get to battle assembly?Response by CW3 Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 27 at 2017 2:12 PM2017-04-27T14:12:09-04:002017-04-27T14:12:09-04:00COL Private RallyPoint Member3478322<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Keep trying, they will get tired of you so they will either release you or court martial you. Good luck.Response by COL Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 24 at 2018 9:27 PM2018-03-24T21:27:55-04:002018-03-24T21:27:55-04:00CW2 Private RallyPoint Member7157676<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>*UPDATE* TO ORIGINAL POST:<br />I hope this update helps a Soldier that may face similar circumstances. I went IRR on the advice of others that did the same thing. Any component can pull you out of the IRR the next day. That is a way to get you where you are trying to go. In my case, I was in the Army Reserve with a full Warrant Officer Candidate packet and being told I wasn't going to be released to the National Guard to pursue my Warrant Officer aspirations. I went IRR, then the National Guard pulled me from IRR and *BOOM* I was in the National Guard.<br />The Guard approved my WOCS packet, I completed WOCS and WOBC and am currently a CW2 in the Alabama Army National Guard. It was a hard road uphill, but as my Father taught me, "If it is worth having, it is worth working for". <br />Having reachback to other Soldiers that are knowledgeable and wise about matters in a forum such as RallyPoint is invaluable. Thanks to everyone that devoted time to respond and encourage. And to all that read this post - Use the tools that are out there, reach out, listen to others that have gone before you. And READ the regulations, TMs, etc. I have found tremendous nuggets in reading random Army regulations and such!! Knowledge is at your fingertips, so take advantage of it!!!<br />#BlessingsToYouResponse by CW2 Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 4 at 2021 11:03 AM2021-08-04T11:03:38-04:002021-08-04T11:03:38-04:00MSG Private RallyPoint Member7159225<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I know two people in a similar situation who called their congressmen.
