Hello,
I'm an Active Army Officer. Currently at a holdover state working as an executive officer. My unit is trying to assign me to a platoon leader spot; however, I'm in the middle of my PEB waiting for my ratings. My question is, is my unit allowed to give me orders/assignment instructions to a new position while I'm in the middle of the IDES process? I don't mind the position, but it'll make transitioning much more of a hassle since I expect to only be in the Army for another 3 months top. I do not want to deal with inventory and waiting for another person to take my position when I would have to worry about transitioning.
