    Tricare after medical retirement

    I've finally gotten through the entire PEB process. In the end I received 30% from the Army and 90% from the VA. Initially I was rated 20% Army. I filed an appeal and got the additional 10%.

    VA Rating Timelines

    I was informed of "Unfit" on 27SEP and my PEBLO told me the VA received the findings that day. The VA also, on the same day, requested clarification on the C&P exam from the Nurse Practitioner about some things. I'm hoping she gets a response to them soon so I can get my raitings!!

    Some basic info to start. I'm getting out of the Army, stationed at Ft. Eustis, Staff Sergeant with 10 years. I have a few questions for how the whole process ends because I am a single parent with 3 kids and plan on using the Vocational Rehab benefits to add a year on for college because my...
