    Transition Leave

    Tread carefully, they don't have to approve anything. You may, with commanders approval. I would ask to speak with the commander. He may has a reason why he's denying it. Possibly because of performance/behavior. I had a soldier who was ETSing, bad attitude, transition leave revoked, Article 15...

    PDA and SecArmy

    CRSC for only 33 months?

    Went to the exit interview. VA MSC said that CRSC is only as long as I was deployed. PEBLO referred me to him for clarification, but I cannot find that in writing anywhere. Is that true?

    Multiple medical issues as result of training

    ETS in less than 30 days with MEB being recommended..

    I was in the same boat, better to extend and get paid while you are going through all those appointments, then to ets, find a job and have to tell them you can go in at times for mandatory apps. Also if you are under 30 % you get severance pay which you won't see if you just ets, more it's...

    Question on prep for decision

    Just be patient. The Peblo can't speed anything up, their just like you, waiting for an update to tell you. It sucks, just make tentative plans for when you do get notified. I'm sitting at 1 year since this whole thing started and about to get out soon.
