   PERS-46 General Policy

• PERS-46 will make every reasonable effort to fill a billet with a TAR Officer before considering a recall.

• Recall fill timelines will be based off the incumbents PRD and will not include command-approved terminal leave, Skill Bridge, etc. for outgoing officers.

• TAR Vacancy Recalls must be no less than 12 months and no longer than 24 months.

• ​Extension requests past 24 months will not be accepted.

• Consecutive back-to-back recall orders for the same billet will not be accepted.

• Recall orders must fill an empty TAR Billet Sequence Code (BSC) at the command; 99990 fills are not authorized.

• Requests for O6 officer recall opportunities are strictly controlled due to statutory limits for TAR O6 end strength.
