My contract says I would be serving no more than six years yet ETS'ing after 3 years. For context I did serve active duty in another branch, took a year off, then reenlisted into the army reserves for what I thought was 6 years. I'm now ETS'ing after doing three years.

Without looking at your DD4, it sounds like you are slated to ETS at the end of your MSO of 8 years. Double-check the dates on everything, and make sure you actually reenlisted for 6 years, the standard Reserve re-ups are 3 and 6 years at a time.

Nobody here can answer that without actually looking at your contract

Are you factoring in IRR time?

SFC Michael Hasbun Did 4 years active and 1 year in IRR before joining reserves for 3 years. I guess this would complete the mandatory 8 years I was supposed to be in for. However, when I signed in MEPS for the Reserve contract it did say 6 years.

I Received An "Early Honorable Discharge At The Convenience Of The Government"
Simply Because I Had But 10 Days Remaining For My 4 Year Enlistment And I Was Stationed In South Korea; Therefore I Also Had My Total Over Seas Days Completed As Well. Taking That Into Consideration, The Expense Of Reassigning Me For 10 Days; Simply Wasn't Worth The Time, Effort, Or The Money... I'd Have Taken More Time To Make The Move Than The Remaining 10 Days I Had Remaining On My Enlistment...
