Just seeing if anyone had experience with appealing at the Formal Board. I’m covering all areas. I believe I have a good shot at decent ratings, but who the hell knows anymore. However, if it came down to it, and a member wanted to stay in service, how would that person go about that process? I...

Sharing my timeline and additional information as I continue on with the process. I felt like my case had some unusual twists. I personally found it helpful to be my own advocate and follow up often. Hopefully this helps! 17 July 2024 - Code 37 applied, notified by the PEBLO that they were...

How long does the IPEB take? I go and sign my NARSUM this Friday and they are sending it off. I've been dealing with this Med board for almost 2 years just ready for it to be over. How does the process work after signing NARSUM and it being sent .

Sorry if this comes off as a rambling mess but this morning I found out I was going to be a guest OC/T at NTC. That wasn’t the issue or am I trying to complain. The main issue is that my PCP changed the profile restrictions to allow my battalion to send me on this tasking without consulting me...

I have completed every step of my MEB process (that alone took almost 2 years and 3 medical hold extensions, btw). However, my package was then sent up to SAFPC for dual action determination for a non-misconduct administrative separation. This was forwarded to them over 3 months ago. In that...

I have surgery beginning of the year on my hip and expecting another surgery on the opposite hip here in the near future. I spoke with my PCM and he said he would refer me to the board which I am assuming is going to get the ball rolling. That was about 2-3 weeks ago and have not heard anything...
