Just saw this, bro. I am Air Guard with over 31 years of service and a dual-status technician. Bottom line, I was in the NDDES, but appealed using Office of Disability Counsel lawyer (like the Office of Soldier's Counsel) and he has been nothing short of awesome for me. It took me 3 years to...

Sorry, just saw this. I'm in the IDES process now. I'm Air Guard (O-5) with over 31 years of service and a dual-status technician. I've been 100% P&T VA since 2019. I redid my mental health portion because I was told that's the easier way to go. Fast forward three years, and I'm in the IDES...

Forgive my ignorance in some of this as I'm going through the IDES process as well. Your BH appointment should be scheduled within a few weeks, maybe sooner, but I caution in giving you a timeframe, which most folks will be reluctant to do, because it depends on lots of stuff. Sorry, I know...

My bad for the tardy response. I'm always glad to help. :)

I got a copy of my DBQs from my PEBLO. When my ODC JAG lawyer comes back from vacation, he wants to see them so he could give me his advice of what he thinks.

So, my case is a little different. I'm Air National Guard,almost 31 years total service, prior E O5. 100%VA P&T (including 50% for "other stressor related disorders") since Oct 2019. Mental Health NARSUM received by National Guard Bureau 14 Nov 2023. IPEB found me "UNFIT" (what I wanted) but...

I have an update for y'all that I just got today- SAFPC has reviewed the appeal for LT COL JOHN DOE assigned to PAS Code X88XXXXX. SAFPC has determined that one or more of the appealed conditions was found In the Line of Duty (ILOD) in accordance with DoD Instruction 1332.18, Disability...

My bad, bro. Im on a much needed vacation and I saw your quesiton. The Office of Disability Council is out of Randolph Air Force Base and the number is 210-565-0739. I have been nothing but pleased from my representation of their office. Just when I thought that I would not get the results I...

Brother, I'm sorry for this fight you have. I cannot honestly say that my Wing (Im Air Guard actually 'denied' my LOD process because they just never did it in a timely fashion. But once they started it, mine was found ILOD all the way to my Wing commander. I had to wait for NGB to find ot ILOD...

I thought I answered this already; my bad; yes. And thus far, he has been nothing short of awesome for me. Now realize this is after my IPEB, FPEB, him helping me with my LOD going through my Wing, and helping it along through NGB. I have talked to him even off-duty hours. He acts like he's my...

Update- my NGB Not In the Line Of Duty (NILOD) appeal is still pending at the Office of the Secretary of the Air Force (SAF). However, I had finally had a LOD pushed through my Wing (I'm Air National Guard and my conditions are mental health related) which my Wing found me In the Line Of Duty...

Much appreciate you, Sir.

I feel what you saying, brother. I pray for a positive outcome for you.

I'm sorry for you, brother. As @cullenrp stated, this issue is is all-too-well as I am currently in the NDDES process (I'm Air Guard- FedTech). I started my process through Mental Health where my Dir of Psychological Health did my NARSUM and turned it over to MDG before they shipped it off to...

It's about time the veterans get some support from up high. I hope and pray this is a more positive sign of good things to come for veterans...
