Update on Army policy on TDRL placement

Jason Perry
The Army Physical Disability Agency has published a memorandum modifying the standard used in determining placement on the Temporary Disability Retirement List (TDRL). You can download the entire memo here: Medical Principles: Presumption of Soundness - Downloads - Physical Evaluation Board Forum . Though the memorandum clearly states that a member will be permanently retired unless it is shown by clear and convincing evidence that the members condition is likely to change over the next five years, I believe that there is a confusing and possibly erroneous explanation of this policy contained in the guidance. The relevant portions are excerpted here: "Part II: Placement on the TDRL There are two types of PDES cases. The first type is the “legacy” case. In this type of case, the PEB assigns the disability rating. The second type of PDES cases is the “DES Pilot case” or other cases where the VA assigns the...

Please join me in thanking RonG for his service as a moderator here at the PEB Forum!! Ron has requested to step back from serving as a moderator. He has been a great help to many folks here on the forum, but he has decided to step back from his service as a moderator. He had been considering discontinuing his involvement in any management activities for some time. His age and medical challenges were the primary factors in his decision. His departure as a moderator on this board was only one of his recent decisions related to participation at various venues. RonG will still be participating as a member here, primarily dealing with finance and CRSC issues. We wish RonG all the best and thank him for his service (both here and his many years in the US Army). Thank you, Sergeant Major!

Memorial Day 2019 Message

I ask you all to join me in reflecting on and remembering the sacrifices of those who gave all in defense of our Nation. Next week is the 75th Anniversary of the D-Day Landings and the Battle of Normandy. So many sacrificed so much and I am grateful for those who stepped up and defended our Nation and way of life. I also hope that folks, after remembering the sacrifices of those brave servicemembers, enjoy the day. Yes, it's not all about BBQ's....but, I believe that the heroes who gave all would likely also want us to enjoy the benefits of what they fought to defend, including time with friends and family. So, be safe, remember the sacrifices of those who perished in defense of our freedom, and then enjoy some of that freedom.
