Form 3340 PDF Details

The 3340 form plays a crucial role in the career progression of Regular Army personnel, catering specifically to those seeking reenlistment or extension. Designed under the guidelines of AR 601-280, with the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Personnel (ODCSPER) as the proponent agency, this form encapsulates the soldier's request in Section I, including the desire to reenlist in the active component or to extend enlistment for specific reasons. Additionally, it addresses accrued leave options, allowing soldiers the choice to cash in their leave or not, a decision that requires careful consideration and counseling. In Section II, the commander's certification further scrutinizes the soldier's qualifications for the requested action, demanding rigorous assessment to ensure only fully qualified personnel are reenlisted or granted extensions. This includes a determination on the soldier's qualifications, the decision on recommending further service within the Army, and actions relating to disapproval or waivers for disqualifications. The commander's inputs are vital, providing a structured pathway for approval and ensuring that the decision is in the best interest of both the soldier and the Army. By incorporating both the soldier's request and the commander's certification, the 3340 form serves as a comprehensive tool for managing career trajectories within the Regular Army, streamlining the process for reenlistment or extension while upholding high standards of service.
