If your son can't live by USAF rules, then he would have a tougher time in the more strict services like the Army or Marines. I don't believe another service will take him if he was kicked out of the USAF.
Sounds to me like your son needs to grow up a little. I know we don't know the whole story, but if the Air Force is kicking him out for assault, it sounds like he is to blame. Why would any service want someone that is going to be a bully and assault someone? No self discipline, he doesn't belong in the US military.

Tough one. The military isn't very family friendly. I wouldn't automatically do anything crazy and enlist in the airforce or anything like that. If she really loved you that much, why would she enlist in the Air Force? To me, it seems like she has put her airforce career as the utmost importance. Did she talk to you first about enlisting to your approval or opinion? If she didn't, then I would break off the relationship. Because a "couple" doens't make rash decisions without consulting the other person. A lot of future married people do the exact opposite. They change their career plans for their future spouse. It may be tough but I think you should consider a break-up. Often times people that enlist for 4 years make a career of the military and reenlist again after their 4 years is up. Are you willing to travel with her? This would be my last choice. But if you love her that much you may want to consider it.

That Article 15 will be on his permanent record for the rest of his life. He most likely will not be able to join any branch.
It's his consequence that he has to face, so oh well. If your son cannot obide by military rules and regulations and the Air Force standards, then he deserved the Article 15.

That's a tough one. I don't know why the Army or Marines would want to take someone who has proven themselves unreliable.
It could though, depend on his MOS. If he has a skill that one of the other services need desperately they may be willing to waiver his discharge. I've seen it done once when it turned out the Army needed a diver.

It must have been pretty severe. Or he has had trouble with this before. I have been in the military for over 22 years and have seen my fair share of fights. I don't recall anyone getting booted. Some money and rank taken and maybe some extra duty but not booted from the service.
Haha. I agree with malaclypse. It does seem ironic to get kicked out of the military for fighting.

If it's a "less than honorable" discharge or adminisrative dishcarge, the best you can hope for is a two year wait before he can reeinlist. Though there are rare chances for this to be waived I wouldn't bet on it. If it was a Dishonorable discharge, no he will not be able to reeinlist.

yeah, sucks to be him. the army is hurting for people, so they might accept him. but to be honest, anything other than a honorable discharge is going to hurt his chances of getting a decent job anywhere, not just in the military.
though i'm suprised he's getting discharged for just one article 15

Why would they want him? If he can't live by the Air Force rules why should another service branch take a chance on him?

It depends on his overall record. If he is able to convince a recruiter that this was a one time event, that perhaps was not his fault, then maybe. If, however, his record shows a pattern of bad behavior then I don't think the other services will touch him. I wish both of you good luck.

not very good. This cannot be a first offense or he wouldnt be being discharged. Most likely his reenlistment code will prevent him from joining another service.
