Will Soldiers who are command referred to ASAP be flagged?

Soldiers who are command referred to the Army Substance Abuse Program (ASAP) will indeed be flagged. This flagging serves as a formal notification within the Army personnel system that the individual is undergoing evaluation and treatment related to substance abuse issues. The purpose of the flag is to ensure that commanders are aware of any performance or conduct issues that may arise due to substance abuse, allowing them to take appropriate actions concerning the soldier’s duties and responsibilities.

Flagging Soldiers who are referred to ASAP is a critical component of ensuring readiness and maintaining military standards. It reflects the Army's commitment to addressing substance abuse while providing support for recovery. Additionally, the flagging process helps track the soldier’s compliance with treatment and rehabilitation plans, further emphasizing the Army’s focus on both accountability and support in these situations.

While other options suggest circumstances under which a soldier might be flagged, they do not capture the comprehensive policy that mandates flagging for any command-referred cases to ensure proper oversight and intervention.
