I understood that....there is a section regarding those in over 180 days...which would apply to Gunnar. Did he ask to be separated? Without knowing the circumstances, it is difficult to offer any insight. I don't know what his options are at this point. The Navy isn't going to offer choices...He will be re-rated or separated...in which case he will get a ticket home (or at least close).

   . Recruits who serve in the Navy more than 180 days are typically separated with a characterization of “General Under Honorable Conditions” unless the reason for separation was due to any type of misconduct.
