Hello Quiet Professionals,

I am currently a Ranger in the 75th and I am in danger of getting RFS'd (Released for Standards) due to a dumb mistake I made on deployment. Fortunately, I have been told I will be given the chance to return if I meet all the requirements. My goal prior to joining was enlist with an 18X contract but I was not old enough, so I took an Opt 40 and I'm glad I did. I love my unit and what we do, however I still would like to go to SFAS. While reading requirements for SFAS, it says I can not "have been terminated from SF, Ranger, or Airborne duty, unless termination was due to extreme family problems". Would that disqualify me, even though I will be allowed to return to Regiment?

Thank you!
