AEA M and "No Train." Why hasn't the M code gone away?

Soldier was accepted by proponent of the MOS he wanted, the contract was done and confirmed and Soldier was reclassed, now his AEA Code is still M (I don't have retain access just curious if anyone else has ever had this issue)

AEA M as far as I know is HRC Exclusive and though I know it is tied into RETAIN somehow... I don't have access so I don't know.

But the soldier has not only reenlisted but has also completed the Reclassification Action. So now I am just confused on why it may not have changed yet.

Ok, I was hoping someone would inadvertently explain the acronyms. what is AEA and HRC? What is the M code?

Because the M code prevents the SM branch from placing them on assignment as you are working with them.

The M code should be lifted as long as the SM has received Assignment Instructions. If not its a hotline to HRC to remove it.
