Types of Counseling
Promotion. All E4s and E5s eligible for promotion without waivers but
not recommended for promotion require an initial (event-oriented) counseling
and periodic (performance/personal growth) counseling quarterly.
Adverse/Separation. Informs the soldier of the administrative
actions available to the commander in the event substandard performance
continues and of the consequences associated with those actions (see AR
635-200, Active Duty Enlisted Separations, para 1-18).
Referral. Helps subordinates work through a personal situation by
identifying a root problem followed by a referral to appropriate resources such
as the chaplain, Army Community Service, or an alcohol and drug counselor.
Crisis. Focused on the subordinate's immediate, short-term needs
following a crisis, such as the notification of the death of a loved one.

Magic Statement
The following "magic" statement is required for any
counseling that may result in further actions:
Pursuant to paragraph 1-16, AR 635-200, this constitutes a formal
counseling session concerning your noted deficiencies. You will be given
a reasonable period of time to correct these deficiencies and to
rehabilitate yourself into a productive, satisfactory soldier. If your
performance and conduct continue to be unsatisfactory, you may receive
punishment under Article 15, UCMJ (Uniform Code of Military Justice) or
be processed for separation under the provisions of Chapter 5, 9, 11, 13,
14, or 18, AR 635-200. If you are processed for separation under the
provisions of AR 635-200, you may receive a general discharge or other
than honorable discharge. Each type of discharge may have serious
consequences affecting civilian employment, veteran's benefits, or future
service in the Armed Forces.

Lessons Learned
• Use the plan of action and the assessment on the back of
DA Form 4856, Developmental Counseling, to show lack of
rehabilitation.
• Put the commander's signature block in the plan of action
block when placing a soldier on restriction or pulling pass
privileges.
• Always use the "magic" statement if the counseling will be
used for further actions.
• Identify specific Articles of the UCMJ violated, and organize
the charges if the soldier's actions require a court martial.
• Always give the Soldier a copy of DA Form 4856 at the end
of the counseling session. This prevents the Soldier from
claiming he did not understand the required corrective
training.

Commanders are the only ones
who can revoke privileges…

You can recommend or request -
but you better have an appropriate
counseling to back up the request.
