Only if the person in question has lost a parent or sibling to COMBAT death. it is not automatic, it must be requested by the servicemember, and they are given the option to stay in and just be removed from a combat area.

Why are you asking? IF you are the Service Member, and there are family problems you need to address, talk to your 1st Sgt or MilPers or Family Support -- they will be MORE than willing to help you deal with any personal (family) problem caused by a death in the family.
This is coming from the perspective of a Military Retiree (whose Siblings are still serving) ... we buried our parents as very young adults, went on our assignments/deployments, and have enjoyed long, honorable service careers.

That was only during the draft. Back them if you were the only son they could not draft you. They did this so that you family name could still live on.
Just like in the movie Saving Private Ryan. They had to go find him because this brother had died so they had to find him and get him home because he was the only son.

There isn't a law anymore but there is a form/waiver of some sort(sorry, don't remember the number) that you can fill out that will stop you from being deployed however it will hurt your career should you choose to stay in.

The only rule that has ever been in place is if you are the only surviving son of a man who was killed while fighting in combat. Nothing else applies.

I haven't heard about this rule, then again I'm in the Navy. But as far as a limit upon children, there are a few rules set in place about how many children you will get to claim as your dependents upon your pay.
