Is there someone I need to talk to, or other forms to fill out, so I can enlist in the Army (besides the DD368 with a recruiter)?

IRR to active duty

I’m trying to go active duty army, but currently IRR for the navy. Dd368 is completed but I’ve been told the navy is not signing them

Your Commander said you wouldn't be released?

... Well, that's that, unless you open door and skip your commander.

If you commander Won’t release then there is nothing you can do til you time you. How much longer you have in IRR? If you got to stay in IRR May as well drill for you can get paid since you won’t be released!

You’ve been told...submit the form and make them deny it, name on the line. At least you’ll know

In my experience if the Navy says something it happens on an official Naval Message probably just an unclassified admin message. So get them to show the message or request to speak to the CMC who is your representative. You were a SH that’s all I know and as I was a NCC (Recruiting type). You can also submit to retake the ASVAB if need be or desired to possibly qualify for more positions in your transfer. The Army May not be looking for direct converts from your current rate to their version of SH. So give yourself the best chances, but a NOSC or reserve center is your best bet. Dealing with a recruiting station will result in you doing a lot of leg work and unless it’s someone who is knowledgeable on the process you may end up very unhappy with your results. Those guys probably already hate their lives, Navy Recruiting leads a lot of bad statistics unfortunately. Because people just don’t Tell people where to go and what to do the first time. They try to make it up as they go along.

If the problem is on the USN side, then talking to the Army will go nowhere. Navy is hurting for personnel as well.

You don't need a 368 if your IRR status. Only drilling reservist or Active duty status need those.
