DA Form 5118 PDF Details

The DA Form 5118, known as the Reassignment Status and Election Statement, plays a crucial role in the reassignment process for enlisted soldiers within the United States Army. This form, guided by the regulations of AR 600-8-11 and managed by DCS, G-1, serves multiple purposes, including the initial screening of a soldier's eligibility for reassignment, determining the need for specific assignment processing like deletions, deferments, and any special processing required. With its authority rooted in several sections of the United States Code and an Executive Order, the form ensures a structured and legally backed process for managing the intricacies of military reassignments. It incorporates a comprehensive approach by gathering detailed information across four major parts, covering everything from personal and military duty status to eligibility criteria based on time in service and requirements for overseas assignments. The form meticulously checks for a soldier's general eligibility, special management command status, and time in service requirements, alongside personal intentions and situations that might affect the reassignment. By requiring detailed remarks and validation at multiple levels – from the Military Personnel Division to the soldier themselves – the DA Form 5118 ensures thorough consideration is given to both the operational needs of the Army and the welfare of its enlisted members and their families.
