Admin Separation and MEB, denied MEB and received a General, Under Honorable Conditions

New to the forum and I've tried doing as much research and reading as possible, but everyone seems to have a bit of a different case/situation. I will try to keep this as brief as possible, and any help or recommendations would be appreciated. And after I explain, please know that I take full responsibility for my actions that have led up to my admin board. There are other CPTs here all with related incidents and they continue to get in trouble, and are receiving a medical retirement.

I am a CPT with 7.5 years of service. I was originally pending an admin separation with an OTH, concurrently with an MEB.

Just received notification on 15OCT13 that my MEB was denied and was given a General, Under Honorable Conditions (but with misconduct and moral, or professional dereliction of duty) for alcohol related incidents.

My IPEB came back 07MAY13 with ratings as follow: 70% DOD, 90% VA. Since then I have had a 3rd shoulder surgery, foot surgery, and a back procedure for rupture discs in my lower back. The army tried to medically discharge me for my shoulder injury in 2007, and then again in 2010 for asthma after returning from Iraq, but I was still maxing my PT tests. I fought to stay in both times and then when I injured my back I realized I was physically beating myself down.

70% Major Depressive Disorder due to MST combat related (diagnosed 25DEC12) to include (PTSD, Insomnia, Anxiety, Adjustment disorder, Alcoholism in early full remission)

90%
Degenerative arthritis right shoulder (3 shoulder surgeries)
Cervicalgia (fractured clavicle during training)
Lumbar degenerative disc disease and disc bulge
Left and Right knee patellafemoal syndrome
Tinnitus
Asthma
Left and Right Sciatic nerve lower extremity

I want to think that I will be ok with a General discharge, but with a code for dereliction of duty I feel like I'm being set up for failure in future jobs. I also have a hard time thinking that anyone higher up at HRC paid attention to my MEB especially with having Military Sexual Trauma (MST). I wish that I could explain to you some of the things that have happened to me while I was deployed, but here is not the place. The morning that I got my DUI I had gone to the ER asking for help. They in return went through my medical records and asked me to please go to Mental Health. I did, and was suffering from severe depression and on my 5th day of not sleeping. (I'm not condoning my DUI, I know I was wrong and there were other options). Shortly after that I spent some time in Mental health.

There are three other females all located at the same post that I know personally:
CPT - JAG prosecuting attorney that gave me the OTH. She is still a probationary officer and they swept her incident under the rug. (caused a bit of an uproar on post)
CPT - 4 documented drunk on duties with blood alcohol over .200 and this last one over a .400, and a DUI off post. She is an ASAP failure, which is suppose to be an automatic chapter. She went to her 4 yr old daughters school and was arrested by the MPs for trying to beat up her daughters classmate for pushing. She is in rehab for the 3rd time, and they decided against her admin separation... She knows the post General personally.
CPT - 14 years of service, never deployed and has the three ribbons and only those three ribbons that we already earned at basic. Did not promote to MAJ. Received a GOMOR for dating a married NCO, and then married him. Had a DUI involving a three car crash. Recently arrested for beating up her husband. Chain of command said they are going to leave her alone because they don't want her to be a liability to the Army (and she is going to get her MEB)

Is there anything I can do to stop my orders from being cut? Is there an appeal process before I get out, or will I have to wait until I'm out and appeal to the ABCMR?
 
Not having all the information about your case makes it hard to give solid advice. I would not expect you to share it in an open forum, but sooner or later you may have to share, maybe in private messages would be best. Remember, 99.9% of us are not lawyers, and our advice is based on experience, not legal precedent. There are however, a couple of lawyers on the site. Jason Perry, the site founder being the most knowledgeable. I would also recommend Mike Parker, as he is a Wounded Warrior Advocate who works at high levels on these issues.

More important than anything, you need to have good legal representation.

So as far as your situation, I am assuming they ran a dual action discharge? Your IPEB findings are very high and tells me that you made it through that process. Was your chapter running through the admin channel at the same time? Did the GCMCA the one who chose your discharge?

Please hang in there. I am sure there are ways we can at least point you in the right direction if nothing else.

Joe,

Thank you for your response. I didn't go though the GCMCA. I had an elimination board here locally and both the results of the board and MEB were decided I'm assuming by the Secretary of Army. I hired an attorney for the board, and he started off with talking about my deployment to Afghanistan.... I went to Iraq, and I knew right then I was going to get eaten alive by the board. I then hired an attorney in DC for a pretty penny, and he has been good, but hasn't dealt with anyone in my situations. He thinks my only other chance is to appeal after I'm out.

I spoke with my Congressman in Florida. He told me to file an EO complaint and that they would have to investigate past actions and show that there were things that have happened with my pattern of misconduct. I don't know if that's a good move or not.

I had a pattern of misconduct with alcohol that started after my first duty station. I was a brand new LT on Division staff, because I needed to have shoulder surgery and was non deployable at that time. A senior officer made it very apparent that he was interested and when I declined he proceeded to make my life a living hell. I also was out eating dinner with a male friend and he walked up behind me and tased me (not kidding). He was almost arrested per the restaurant, but I declined saying that I have to see him at work. My whole chain of command was aware of the situation before I ever made a statement, and he was told to not have any further contact with me, which was of no help. I was 31 at the time and felt that I could handle this situation, but it didn't get any better and I wasn't in the right mindset. I began drinking heavily and received a DUI. This was eventually expunged and my GOMOR was removed to my restricted fiche. With my commands support I requested to be removed from Division staff and deploy. During my deployment my boss was buying me inappropriate gifts of jewelry exceeding $400. I went to EO, the Chaplain, and my senior rater, because I felt that how am I supposed to do my job when this individual is in control of my OER. Not one person would help me or let me file a complaint (although they said it was wrong, they were all buddies, and my BDE XO was in the middle of an affair resulting in a non promotion to LTC) I received my OER and my boss said it must be nice to walk on water. I worked my ass off and always have, but I was fulfilling the role as the Automations OIC (which is a senior CPT or MAJs position) I developed severe insomnia and worked 14-16 hour days, 7 days a week, and covered down daily for my boss who was MIA often. I also had an issue with a soldier stalking me, and everyone said he just had a crush. I pleaded with this soldier to stop and that I'm here to do my job an help everyone that I can. He would follow me at night to the porto jon, send me love notes via SIPR, and grabbed me one night and tried forcing himself on me. I told him that if he ever touched me again I was going to beat the crap out of him. His NCO came to me one day, because he noticed his actions were odd around me. I provided the emails and he was removed from his job and given an ART15. The BDE S3 SGM was so angry at me and said I couldn't handle a harmless crush. It probably was the first time I really stood up for myself and said unless you read those emails, or know that he follows me at night you need to back off and give me some type of respect. We also lost 4 guys from our shop, which weighed on us all heavily. There other things, but trying to keep this simple as possible.

When I returned back from Iraq I was very different. My dad is the one that picked me up and I stayed with him until I could get into my new home. I went days without sleeping and was extremely secluded and quiet. Shorty after I PCSd and found myself alone and drinking heavily. I received another DUI (cop was fired for falsifying breath tests). Again I don't condone drinking and driving I was wrong without a doubt. I knew I needed help and asked to be put into rehab and my counselor in ASAP told me that they felt that I was a binge drinker and not an alcoholic. I also was in need of a second shoulder surgery and had sever bouts of bronchitis eventually being diagnosed with asthma (combat related). I didn't want to go to the Captains career course (SCCC) as I knew that I would never be a commander with my past incidents. I was told I had recovered and would be fine with my OERs. I injured my back while in SCCC and that's when they started the MEB process and I was notified that I was pending a show cause board for elimination. 27JUN13 I went to the ER due to insomnia and suicidal ideations, and also went to mental health. That same day I received my 3rd DUI, and my chain of command had thought I had committed suicide, because they were very aware that I had been to mental health and I never miss formation. I was placed into rehab upon my request and by far the best support that I have ever received. I was able to receive the necessary counseling and doctors appointments without hesitation.

Just to give you insight of other things I have dealt with and it sometimes I'm at a loss for words. I had a senior NCO find my apartment and sit at my doorsteps (thanks to rosters). I had several voicemails of him professing his love for me screaming and crying. I shared this with another female that I worked with, because I was scared to death of getting in trouble for the assumption of an inappropriate relationship. I told him at work that this can never happen again, and that he was too close to retirement to ruin his career. I had another NCO create a fake Facebook account and he would tell me when and where he saw me on post, or in town. I was able to figure out where he worked and at the time was dating a police officer, and once he found out it was not longer an issue. I hired an attorney for my last DUI and had to fire him, and I know I'm going to get charged with a DUI regardless of who I hire. I ran into him three weeks ago on a Saturday and he was extremely intoxicated. Has never seen me out of uniform, and proceeded to tell me that he can't stop staring at my chest, called me a hoochie because I have a small wrist tattoo, put his arms around me, and tried to get me to take him home. I said do you not realize I'm your client and everyone in this in this establishment knows you and I. He just shook his head and said who cares. I feel like I have no support system or help, besides my amazing father.

I look back now and realize I might have been extremely athletic (slightly broken now), but didn't have the backbone to deal with things that happened to me while I've been in the military. I've been told that I'm too nice and I know that I try to see the good in people and get run over. I grew up with a large military family and three brothers, and put my heart and sole into my work and am leaving a disaster. I understand people have been kicked out of the military for less or after only one incident, and I don't feel or think that I deserve special treatment. I know this is a long shot, but I wanted to reach out, before I officially cut ties with the military.
 
You guys had alot of drinking/alcohol use going at your station. -what's up with that? Damn three CPT's...-ALL these Officers involved with alcohol-so sad.

Your case is really complicated and I think you definately need maparker or Jperry on your case-some SUPER ATTORNEY
Should not a military medical board take precedent over any other administrative process??-don't know -just asking

I believe you when you write about the emotional things that you have had to endure-I believe every word-I have had so many individuals come to me asking for help with similar things. I have always taken care of these individuals and pointed them in the right direction.

My prayers are with you. Do not give up or cave in. Remember what was said in this forum the other day "Never default acceptance to potential injustice, to be successful is to challange what you potentially believe is worong"

I do hope that you get this mattered cleared as well as help for any underlying reasons causing this alcohol use. Do not give up

Sorry for the delayed response. I wanted to do some reading and see what I could find.

First, let me say how sorry I am that your career followed the path it did. It sounds like you worked with some horrible people.

Have you read through AR 600-8-24? There are some sections in there that would seem very applicable in your situation.

1. 1-34 Sexual Assualt
2. 4-3 Medical Conditions
3. 4-6 Board of Inquiry
4. 4-7 Board of Review
5. 4-16 Inquiry Defects

These are all potential areas that you could address. What scares me is you do not seem to be aware of exactly how the case was handled. Did your attorney do everything, or did he involve you in the defense? After the local board, your stuff should have gone to a board of review. Did that happen? It would be the Secretary of the Army deciding whether to separate via PEB, or Misconduct.

I have definitely had an interesting career that I don't wish upon anyone, but trying to take things in stride day to day. What scares you, has scared me without a double and has been a huge issue for me. I have hired two reputable attorneys, one locally (he represents way too many people on this post, and also represented the prosecuting attorney in my case after she received her DUI), and then one gentleman in DC. They just haven't dealt with a case like mine and they are a bit surprised and telling me that we will appeal after I'm discharged. I have never personally been impressed with my JAG attorney, however she is stretched thin and extremely busy with several other officer cases. I think it irks her that I know a majority of them and know who is getting swept under the rug, who's getting support, who's getting BOIs dismissed, or things of that nature. I've been stationed here for 3.5 years and worked at every level on this TRADOC post and you get to know a lot of people and there are no secrets. I have my personal opinions on why I don't have the same support and there are also times I wish I was as boisterous, threatening, or blackmailing as some of my peers (not my style though).

On an odd note, each individual/peer that I have known that has had a BOI/Elimination Board, their chain of command, civilian police officer, or peers have come and spoken against them. They tried desperately to get individuals to come speak against me during my board and not one individual would agree. I have had others tell me that they were questioned before they testified on my behalf to as why would they support me in a case like this. I had people from my first duty station, deployment, to my current duty station speak or write letters on my behalf. Anyway I could go on and on, but it just eats me inside that I feel like they had made a decision the minute I stepped foot in that board.

I have done a lot of reading on AR 600-8-24, and there are a few things that I'm going to try and find out today. I did reach out to SWAN - Service Women's Action Network and they deal with cases like mine, and hopefully I haven't figured this out too late. I've never wanted to go public about my case, but deciding to post in this forum has made me decide to reach out to the media through SWAN. If I can't find or get the help I need, I hope that I can reach out and help someone in the future with my experience through all of this. As I sit here looking at the board results from HRC there is not one mention about my MEB, except that it wasn't approved. I was diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder due to MST combat related to include (PTSD, Insomnia, Anxiety, Adjustment disorder, Alcoholism in early full remission). Did anyone even read my IPEB results. If they did, it's a sad day in the Army for those that will experience what I have gone through.
 
Thank you again for your response. I keep getting kicked off this site due to internet issues, and so this will be a much shorter and less winded message. I have looked into AR 600-8-24 and going to try and find out some information today.

However I've also reached out to SWAN - Service Member's Action Network, and have decided to go public. I never thought that I would be able to do this, but I also never thought that I would post to a public forum either. I have a hard time thinking that the board up at HRC took into consideration that I was diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder due to MST combat related to include (PTSD, Insomnia, Anxiety, Adjustment disorder, Alcoholism in early full remission). I hope that regardless of my outcome that I will be able to reach out to others and help them.
 
Good luck with this one. Stay current with your legal team. If you get back into the MEB I may be able to give you some advice then.
 
You already have helped others. It takes strength to even compose a paragraph when you are dealing with something so deep as your life, career, current emotions. You have made a major step with posting to the forum, thank you. Please know that you are not alone and the truth shall prevail in the end.
It does sound like something went wrong with your case and taking care of you as a Soldier. I'm sorry that you have had to endure this.
I'm hoping that everything works out for you. I'm glad you have decided to fight, so many people give up. Your experience will help others. Don't give up, stay the course and fight the fight. Remain strong. Do file your current medial dx with VA, you can be service connected with honorable discharge. This will be income for you while you continue to fight your case and take care of yourself. Best of luck-PURSUE, OVERTAKE AND RECOVER.
 
Have you contacted Jason Perry? He is the site owner, but also a lawyer. He is a retired LTC, and very well aquainted with all of this. Mike Parker, also a retired LTC, is a Wounded Warrior Advocate who is at the front edge of legislation, and action on behalf of service members. He is well connected, and can usually get a top level answer.

I am not endorsing either on behalf of the site. I am endorsing them as the right people to talk to regarding your challenges. Even if they can't help you personally, they can point you in the direction of somebody who can.

Thanks @ranger2992 for the kind words (and the promotion...I separated from active duty JAG Corps as a Captain, though. ;) ...in my mind, sometimes, I convince myself that I was being groomed for Chief of Staff of the Army before my resignation. When I tell that to my wife, she ignores that and gives me a directive to make sure I remember to get the trash out to the curb).
 
Morgan75,

Sounds like you have had some horrible experiences. Procedurally, I am not sure what happened with your BOI, but what happened at that point is very important to your later appeals. If your orders are cut, it does seem likely that you will have limited options at this point. It may be that an ABCMR application is your recourse, assuming you are actually separated.

It is really difficult to give more input at this point. From what you have stated, it sounds like many things have gone wrong. It may be that they can be addressed and that a medical retirement can ultimately be achieved. However, as in every case, the specific facts and circumstances (and, in this case, what transpired at your BOI), will be heavily determinative as to the ultimate outcome.

I hope all goes well for you!

New to the forum and I've tried doing as much research and reading as possible, but everyone seems to have a bit of a different case/situation. I will try to keep this as brief as possible, and any help or recommendations would be appreciated. And after I explain, please know that I take full responsibility for my actions that have led up to my admin board. There are other CPTs here all with related incidents and they continue to get in trouble, and are receiving a medical retirement.

I am a CPT with 7.5 years of service. I was originally pending an admin separation with an OTH, concurrently with an MEB.

Just received notification on 15OCT13 that my MEB was denied and was given a General, Under Honorable Conditions (but with misconduct and moral, or professional dereliction of duty) for alcohol related incidents.

My IPEB came back 07MAY13 with ratings as follow: 70% DOD, 90% VA. Since then I have had a 3rd shoulder surgery, foot surgery, and a back procedure for rupture discs in my lower back. The army tried to medically discharge me for my shoulder injury in 2007, and then again in 2010 for asthma after returning from Iraq, but I was still maxing my PT tests. I fought to stay in both times and then when I injured my back I realized I was physically beating myself down.

70% Major Depressive Disorder due to MST combat related (diagnosed 25DEC12) to include (PTSD, Insomnia, Anxiety, Adjustment disorder, Alcoholism in early full remission)

90%
Degenerative arthritis right shoulder (3 shoulder surgeries)
Cervicalgia (fractured clavicle during training)
Lumbar degenerative disc disease and disc bulge
Left and Right knee patellafemoal syndrome
Tinnitus
Asthma
Left and Right Sciatic nerve lower extremity

I want to think that I will be ok with a General discharge, but with a code for dereliction of duty I feel like I'm being set up for failure in future jobs. I also have a hard time thinking that anyone higher up at HRC paid attention to my MEB especially with having Military Sexual Trauma (MST). I wish that I could explain to you some of the things that have happened to me while I was deployed, but here is not the place. The morning that I got my DUI I had gone to the ER asking for help. They in return went through my medical records and asked me to please go to Mental Health. I did, and was suffering from severe depression and on my 5th day of not sleeping. (I'm not condoning my DUI, I know I was wrong and there were other options). Shortly after that I spent some time in Mental health.

There are three other females all located at the same post that I know personally:
CPT - JAG prosecuting attorney that gave me the OTH. She is still a probationary officer and they swept her incident under the rug. (caused a bit of an uproar on post)
CPT - 4 documented drunk on duties with blood alcohol over .200 and this last one over a .400, and a DUI off post. She is an ASAP failure, which is suppose to be an automatic chapter. She went to her 4 yr old daughters school and was arrested by the MPs for trying to beat up her daughters classmate for pushing. She is in rehab for the 3rd time, and they decided against her admin separation... She knows the post General personally.
CPT - 14 years of service, never deployed and has the three ribbons and only those three ribbons that we already earned at basic. Did not promote to MAJ. Received a GOMOR for dating a married NCO, and then married him. Had a DUI involving a three car crash. Recently arrested for beating up her husband. Chain of command said they are going to leave her alone because they don't want her to be a liability to the Army (and she is going to get her MEB)

Is there anything I can do to stop my orders from being cut? Is there an appeal process before I get out, or will I have to wait until I'm out and appeal to the ABCMR?
