>>65000497You get executed and dropped in the ocean.
>>65000497Obviously you can't be onboard when you're not specifically supposed to be there. In your case, this means you legally automatically reenlist for another round. Why hasn't anyone explained this to you before?

>>65000497>>65000509Former DEERSfag here. If you actually read your contract before you signed it, you have a 6 to 8 year total military service obligation. While the active duty segment is only listed as 4 to start with, since you're technically still in the reserves for the rest of that it means the government may extend your active duty up to the full term if deemed necessary by the DOD or DOW or whatever its called now. If there's a conflict that means they can technically hold you on active duty for another 2-4 fucking years, and stop loss your ass for an extra 90 days (last I checked) of active duty on top of that. This is of course assuming your command is willing to do a bunch of paperwork to make it happen, but it's happened before, especially right after 9/11 and in 2003 when Iraq kicked off.
>>65000497You'll get a chance to re-enlist (and potentially an additional bonus depending on needs-of-service). If you refuse, either you get stop-lossed -- sometimes with the fig leaf of "immediately-activated reserve component" -- to cover a few weeks or months of additional work, or you go on terminal leave and get flown out as soon as practicable. It very much depends on the situation the ship is in, what resources are available, and how much of a cock your captain is. One of the "resources" is people left on the ship who can do your job, and/or ones rotating in to cover it. We had a poor bastard of a Sergeant in the shop on one of my cruises whose EOS was two months after the cruise started. He got stop-lossed for four months, then had it extended another four months when the whole ship got fucked over to go slap the Iranians because they were starting shit in the No-Fly zone in 2002. He was the single least-motivated man I've ever met in the Corps, we all called him Sergeant Shaggy Doo after the first stop-loss and adopted him as division mascot on the second.
Typically they fly you off a month or two before EAOS.
>>65000509Try talking to your chief and career counselor, not the dipshit E-nothings in your berthing. And make it very clear that you intend to take the maximum amount of terminal leave.
>>65000497>>65000509they send you into the engine room until they return to port and you're stuck on bread and water for inconveniencing your chain of command
>>65000699>Try talking to your chief and career counselorAlso this, if they don't really know your EOS is coming up they won't do shit about it. You're a number on a graph down in the admin division until then, and *nobody* likes getting ambushed with "oh hey my contract is up in a month get me the fuck out of here"
>>65000593Anon gets turned into a plane?
