How are re-evaluations handled after exemptions during pregnancy or other exemptions under AR 600-9?

• A. Exemptions are permanent and do not require re-evaluation.
• B. Re-evaluation occurs at the next scheduled assessment only.
• C. They are addressed with exemptions and subsequent re-evaluation as the soldier returns to duty.
• D. They must leave the unit immediately.

Answer: (C)

Exemptions under AR 600-9 pause the body composition requirements for the period of the exemption, such as during pregnancy. When the soldier returns to duty, a re-evaluation is conducted to determine their current body composition status and to re-enter them into the program as needed. This approach keeps accountability while recognizing temporary conditions; the re-evaluation isn’t a one-time fixed point and it doesn’t require leaving the unit immediately.
