Mel2007, I just wanted to post to you my timeline, I am a few weeks ahead of you at the VA portion so as I get some updates I will post them to you and hopefully you will continue to do the same. It's great to see someone on here thats at the same stage as I am. 5/16/13 - referral to MEB...

When I attended basic at Ft Knox, FTU was for the injured and/or personnel who didn't meet the PT requirements. I never heard of any one going any where else. FTU was staffed with Drill Sergeants who weren't any where near as tough on the Soldiers because they weren't technically in phase 1 or...

You are 100% correct, I try to pay close attention to how the votes made in the House and Senate on a variety of issues. But until just recently I haven't ever voted on representative and senate candidates. This is definitely going to change for the mid term elections.

I appreciate your encouraging words, all of you (JoliJoey and Jason). I was just at wits end when I wrote that. I'll make it without UCMJ. Luckily I'm on nightshift! Either way I do not think I need to fill someone else's slot in the WTU just because I'm getting poor treatment, I see this...

so...do we have anyone in the GOP that supports Veterans? if not we're screwed...

Does anyone have any information regarding being transferred to the WTU? I am at Fort Gordon and am stuck working from 1900 to 0830-0900 Tuesday - Saturday. I have already received my unfit memo. This unit is very very top heavy to the tune of only 3 E-5's and 5 E-4's versus 40 other personnel...

I agree with about 90% of what you said, and your right lets not tray from what this board is intended for. I thought I liked the idea of the two Democrats sponsoring these bills, but as we can tell there is little to no bipartisan work being done in Washington, therefore we would be better off...

in the AR 635-40 that I just pulled from the apd.army.mil site appendix B has been completely deleted. Has this been relocated in the AR? The date of the AR 635-40 on the apd website is: Rapid Action Revision (RAR) Issue Date: 20 March 2012

Holy S***, I had no idea that you could come off of the TDRL and made permanent right after the 6 month eval. Hopefully I get a fair evaluation, I've read some bad things about these follow-up evaluations. Thanks for the info Ranger!

The story of our lives on this board, high hopes and horrible let downs. However, I like you have been moving quickly through the process. Thank goodness for the reasons on why i'm being boarded and how well written my narsum and c&p findings were. There shouldn't be any causes for delay at...

You are mostly right, the repub's have basically stated that any bill that causes more spending will not be passed. These two bills would definitely cause more spending. It's not as black and white as people in the military want you to think. They say the dem's ruin the military and the...

I just tweeted Harry Reid and Sanford Bishop, the sponsors of these bills. The great part of being in and from Georgia is that I can reach out to Sanford Bishop as a "constituent".

That document was quite interesting. " "VA will not reduce their compensation based on the military severance pay." This obviously has nothing to do with TDRL pay does it? Meaning that the 1 for 1 offset still exists for me?

This is all that is on it: AHRC-DPE-S 15 July 2013 MEMORANDUM FOR VA SUBJECT: Request for Rating: **** 1. The Physical Evaluation Board (PEB) found...

I'm done mentoring, because as soon as I leave it will get pushed down their throat to only protect themselves. This is the mindset of this outstanding new "lean" army that the great SMA wants: "**** everyone else, take care of you and C.Y.A. at all times because every one is out to get you...

or how about yes battle buddy (term used loosely) I know that you haven't even been referred to the MEB yet but of course I'll go to PT rather than shift and you go to shift because, your in the same boat as me... Yes 1SG let me walk around this track in front of the unit that is doing pushup...

by the way, anyone have any idea what this means on my memo: (MEB Dx 2) (V1-Yes; V3-Yes; V4-Yes)?

I will definitely keep everyone informed in hopes that someone in a similar situation or even here at Fort Gordon will read this and gain some insight. I was somewhat upset when I actually talked to my PEBLO this morning and she told me about the unfit memo after I asked her about it. Her...

Just an update from my previous post, I spoke with my PEBLO this morning and it stated the following: 1. The Physical Evaluation Board (PEB) found *** *********** *****, ***-**-****; physically unfit to continue military service for the following PEB referred unfitting conditions: a...
