Final answer:

A Soldier who refuses to reenlist or extend to fulfill a Service Obligation for NCOES might face administrative actions or may have to complete the obligation in other ways if they are not a conscientious objector, with consequences depending on military regulations and the individual's contract.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a Soldier refuses to reenlist or extend to meet a Service Obligation for Noncommissioned Officer Education System (NCOES) attendance, the consequences may vary depending on the circumstances and the regulations in place at the time. Historically, conscientious objectors have been those who refuse to serve in the armed forces for religious or philosophical reasons. They could apply for conscientious objector status, and if recognized, they would be given an alternative assignment, such as noncombatant service or civilian service of national importance. However, this status typically requires deep-seated convictions that conflict with military service.

If a Soldier is not a conscientious objector but still refuses to reenlist or extend their service obligation, there may be administrative actions taken or they may need to fulfill their service obligation in another manner as dictated by the policies of the branch of military they serve in. The exact nature of any disciplinary action or requirements would be governed by the military's regulations and the Soldier's individual contract and obligations.
