See.........they used my DD-214 from when I left active duty in 2011. I have yet to get my DD-214 for my ANG service because I am still in hence the title 10. Yes, I have 12 years active and 5 ANG.
Yes, because that was for the fully developed claim that you had filed. Now you are going to be approved for (at the minimum) TDRL at 100% from active duty. They may choose to put you on PDRL because you are stage IV and it is considered incurable.
Where I see the fight being is getting the original claim approved to the date of filing of September 2015. That is 12 months of C&P benefits that you do not want to leave on the table.
Sooooo, maybe wrong forum but here it goes. At what pay rate will I get? My 359 shows 13.36 years of title 10, but I was commissioned 17+ years ago (due to ANG service), I'll get 75% of what? O-5.
Your highest 3 years of earnings. Whether they use your highest three of active duty or the highest base pay rate for your last three years of service depends on what code they retire you under (1201,1202, etc.).

First off, I am very pleased to see that you got a 100% rating from DoD and VA. That was what should have happened based on what you had written previously. (You may still have claims or issues on the VA side with date of entitlement that may impact what you should get in the final calculation).
010102. Retired Pay Base The retired pay base is determined based upon the date the member first entered military service and whether the member is retiring under regular, reserve, or disability provisions of law. Details are in Chapter 3. A. The Date of Initial Entry into Military Service (DIEMS) determines whether the retired pay base is the monthly basic pay of the member just before retirement or an average of the highest 36-months of basic pay applicable during the member’s career. 1. Final Basic Pay. For members who first entered military service before September 8, 1980, the retired pay base is generally the final basic monthly pay that the member is receiving at the time of retirement. 2. High–Three Average (High 36-Month Average). For members who entered the military service on or after September 8, 1980 the retired pay base is generally 2BDoD 7000.14-R Financial Management Regulation Volume 7B, Chapter 1 * November 2015 1-5 the average of the highest three years (36-months) of monthly basic pay to which the member received for any 36-months of active service whether consecutive or not.
I don't know what you mean by the VA rated you at 0%. You said in your post signature block that VA rated you 100%. Do you mean for 0% for one condition?
In any event, best of luck in retirement! Congratulations on your deserved retirement!
Jason, the DoD gave me 100% and was very specific the VA hadn't given me anything. When I logged into eBenefits, the VA showed 100% rating, not service connected, so basically 0 money. About a week later I logged into eBenefits and it showed the normal 100% rating, service connected. What a journey.
Your highest 3 years of earnings. Whether they use your highest three of active duty or the highest base pay rate for your last three years of service depends on what code they retire you under (1201,1202, etc.).
In short, it means "Upon a determination by the Secretary concerned that a member described in subsection (c) is unfit to perform the duties of the member’s office, grade, rank, or rating because of physical disability incurred while entitled to basic pay or while absent as described in subsection (c)(3), the Secretary may retire the member, with retired pay computed under section 1401 of this title, if the Secretary also makes the determinations with respect to the member and that disability specified in subsection (b)."
