One of my best friends was an apache pilot who came up through ROTC. A year or two in, his facebook exploded with photos of him and his new wife, having an extravagant wedding. Then a bunch of us realized it was April 1st. He spent 10k on getting photos done for an april fool's joke. We made fun of the fact he could never retire if he spent money like a dumbshit. He was fatally hit by a car at the airport around thanksgiving on his way home five years ago, not long after the april fools joke. This time of year always reminds me of that dude.

So I got diagnosed with narcolepsy a while back, right around 17 years in. I just kinda layed low for a few months before my PCM called to ask. They told me that would be an MEB with very little chance of returning to duty. Well, poo poo, I really wanted concurrent disability but medical retirement may do. The doc tells me she needed to talk to my sleep specialist about his diagnosis first. Months pass. I have a follow-up with my sleep specialist, who confirms that it's definitely narcolepsy and his diagnosis remains firm. I'm now 3 months from my 18 year mark. I have a sitdown with the doc for my PHA and she brings up the same point about the narcolepsy, and in particular the modafinil that was prescribed for it. I tell her I take it as needed if I'm drug out in the morning, like an extra cup of coffee (which is true). She tells me that narcolepsy with modafinil is a definite med board, so her solution is to just arbitrarily clear my prescription from the system and call it good. So untreated narcolepsy is, presumably, peachy. Current plan? Sit pretty for another year and after my 19 year mark get my modafinil back and let them MEB me. Praise the lazy gods of military medicine for allowing me to grab a bigger fistful of Uncle Sam dollars solely because a doc took a shortcut.

A few years ago my local med group's general incompetence caused them to retroactively label an acute injury-induced event a chronic MEB-able condition. After some months of dick-dance I got back on flying status and went on a chill deployment for a few weeks. At my next PHA they got all pissy about me flying til they realized a) they hosed up by letting me go with what they claimed was a grounding condition, and b) I was about to PCS and they could just sweep it under the rug. Which they did. I was kinda pissed it happened but didn't want to bring attention to it so

My readiness NCO told me I was referred for the Med Board Process (I was never clear on the terms for the stages of the process, so I'm sure I'm loving up terms. The terms and process also changed midway through my poo poo). I was told they decided to separate me in '10. My date of retirement is Aug '15. Another dude I knew around the same time took 90 days. Army is weird, yo.

I knew someone who was being med boarded while flight med was trying to get her back on flying status following a seizure.

If you're Navy and they do decide to board you then you will be beyond your 18 year mark by the time the findings come back. If these findings were to.come back as unfit you can request permanent limited duty for purposes of retirement at 20. You have to be past 18 when the findings come back. Get a thumbs up letter from your CO saying you're basically suitable to perform the duties of your rank (not job) and that you'll stay in standards and then they'll park you at a desk until you're done. I know for Navy it's not exactly something they advertise so for other services it may be worth asking the peblo.

I got the option to med board or fix my problem with surgery. I elected for the surgery and am still amazingly hosed up anyway. Hooray!

I sort of wonder how many hosed up situations have been magically “solved” by a PCS over the years.

Seems like a dumb app but a mostly overblown fear considering the probably hundreds of other ways everyone is being tracked by apps, social media, etc. That said, no loving way I’d let the Army have an app with those permissions on my phone, but not out of fear of a foreign intelligence service.

Nystral posted:Was this during boot or after? Before graduation. It was mostly deleted but a couple guys showed up in a veteran whine thread about how much better they are than all those dirty civilians because they shipped to bootcamp and how it taught them THE VALUE OF SERVICE. The comment about how they got kicked out was deleted above but someone responding indicated it was for failing fitness/weight standards. Probably just got tossed into Seps right away and lingered a few weeks. At least when I went through if you failed PT tests or weight you would get put into Seps pretty quick and I think it's stricter nowadays.
