A military disability retirement negates the remainder of a service commitment. Retired is retired.What did your peblo say about the service commitment. If you got medically retired that gets waived right? So as long as you made it to your normal 20 yos mark you’d be good?
You really have a choice of how you want to do your disibabilty claims, if you want to risk not making 20 years of service and if you wanted to continue service.A military disability retirement negates the remainder of a service commitment. Retired is retired.

If the "20" you speak of is active duty, that plus a 50% VA comp rate qualifies you for CRDP which would be significant.So I now have an approved retirement date of 1 Feb and my Dr/PEBLO says they’re not going to MEB me. However, I thought about withdrawing my retirement in October and letting them MEB me. I hit 20 in December. Would there be any benefit to this plan? My thought was getting my rating before I separate as I’m under the care of a case manager so I can’t do it prior to retirement. Maybe I could make it a little longer than February to bump up my top three as I’ll only have SMSgt on for two years when I retire as planned? Thanks!
I had a regular retirement at 22.75 years active duty so I see little benefit to a DoD disability retirement if you already qualify for a regular retirement.I hit 20 active duty years in December. I just wasn’t sure if there was an advantage to an MEB after 20?
