Which factor qualifies temporary non-deployable due to pregnancy?

• A. DRC 3 classification.
• B. Permanent limited duty.
• C. Pregnant or postpartum status qualifies as temporary non-deployable.
• D. Hospitalized.

Answer: (C)

Being pregnant is treated as a temporary non-deployable condition because deployment during pregnancy can pose risks to both the mother and the fetus, and medical supervision is required to determine when it’s safe to deploy again. The postpartum period is included in this temporary designation, with redeployment assessed after medical clearance and recovery. Other factors describe different readiness statuses or longer-term conditions, so they don’t specifically capture the temporary nature tied to pregnancy.
