c. Soldiers in BCT/OSUT normally are not separated for reasons of lack of motivation or aptitude prior to
completion of their second week of training. Time spent in the FTU is not counted toward those two weeks. This will
provide new Soldiers a fair adjustment period, and allows the command an opportunity to evaluate and counsel the
Soldier. However, commanders will ensure that highly disruptive Soldiers are removed from the platoon environment
and the appropriate administrative or disciplinary actions are taken.

d. Medical conditions that existed prior to service (EPTS).

(1) In the course of evaluation for an injury or condition, it may be revealed that the Soldier was not medically
qualified under procurement medical fitness standards. If the chain of command and medical authorities determine the
Soldier entered the service with a medical condition that prevents full participation in IET training activities, the
Soldier may be separated IAW AR 635-200, paragraph 5-11. This provision is applicable only if the condition is
discovered within the first six months of the Soldier’s enlistment, and the Soldier provides reasonable proof (copy of
medical records, sworn statements from parents, etc.) that the injury EPTS.

(2) The EPTS separation process should not be utilized if the Soldier received a waiver for the same condition,
unless the condition changes and there is a significant safety concern related to the change or condition that prevents
the Soldier from completing training in any MOS, and appropriate medical authority determines that the condition is
not remediable within a reasonable period of time.
