What you're going to need to do is return to duty earlier than expected and have yourself an MVP year against all odds. Also, break a few tackles in the process.

I seriously doubt you are going to get med boarded out for an ACL. And it's been a while since I read the MILPERSMAN articles, but I don't think your command has any say in whether or not you go to a med board. But if you do, I wouldn't worry. I know plenty of guys with way worse things than a torn ACL who stay in.

I was actually informed by the doctor that the command is responsible for requesting a medboard. Should be expected that nobody knows what the hell is going on...

Do yourself a favor and spend some time with the MILPERSMAN and find out for sure. Either way, the command doesn't make the final decision.

I'm sure the eng screening for XO probably felt differently.

That being said, it's kind of an open secret that the first ORSE a new captain gets will be a ballbuster, while his last one will be a pushover. Disregard that the captain himself is almost completely uninvolved with any part of the inspection. It's that same "push the evals so we can show continuous improvement" mentality reaching at least to the O-6 level.

I've never been involved in the LIMDU process, but MILPERSMAN 1306-1200 says you can only be placed on LIMDU following action by a medical board. Referral to a medical board is part of the process no matter what, not necessarily the first step in out-processing.

EDIT: This page, and the other LIMDU stuff there on the sidebar, would probably be worth your time to read: http://www.public.navy.mil/bupers-npc/career/LIMDU/Pages/CommandResposiblites.aspx

When people talk about getting medboarded out they're referring to a Physical Evaluation Board. Going limdu technically involves a "medboard" but it's just a form that your doctor fills out that gets your duty status changed.

I hate the military's limited duty system.

Busted my knee this month with an ACL tear (playing DODGE BALL for command PT no less), and now I'm out for six-to-nine months? Then they're going to medboard me?

9 years of service threatened by an injury I could nary avoid. poo poo.

Your knee is never going to be the same after that injury. If you manage to stay in, like many people I know that had the same injury, you will keep tearing it and go through countless surgeries and be miserable.

Take the medboard and run. Enjoy your GI Bill.

She has a masters in RF engineering. She made more money on day one than I make with 9 years at E-6. It's just a russian mentality -- when you grow up with your world collapsing around you and you just don't understand why, you grow a(n) (un)healthy fear of Murphey's Law.

This is why your phone's contact list should adhere to the one-up/one-down rule. Much less chance of drunk texting way above your paygrade.
