I posted this on another thread regarding Dolphin48, but since that thread is a bit outdated I thought I would start a new thread specific for the PFR (which I can't find too much about in here), as well as private discussion with a lawyer, but my son and his wife can't fund the fee.
"My son, USMC, has tons of paperwork too and strangely had almost the same response in his Formal Board findings, that you had typed on 2-20-13 about the three hour hearing. Wonder if it was the same board members! Makes me think they have prepared 'statements.'
My son just signed papers today (yesterday) stating that he will file a PFR. It seems that what I can glean from the posts above and what my son's attorney want to respond with, do not appear to fit the 3 categories for filing the PFR. So I am glad that you were able to get the "good' part of your PFR. And (shhh) a bit hopeful that my son will at least get a 'good' part as well. My questions to you are: what exactly were the reasons on the PFR (you can send privately if you would rather); how long did it take to get a response; and, were you satisfied with the final outcome (which seems like you were still waiting)?"
Included in the above are a couple of questions, but if anyone has had the experience of filing a PFR, what were the reasons submitted and did they fit into the 3 categories, were there additional medical documentation, what was the wait time, etc.
Additionally, if you filed had you been afforded the opportunity to review any IFEB reconsideration findings on paper or only provided the said findings verbally?
Thanks - a USMC Mom
