I am currently on my third year serving as an AGR in the ANG. I had 12 years of prior AD service. My injuries, both physical and mental, have clear and documented ties to my military service.
I'm also a pilot. I spent just under a year DNIF / medical down until trying flying again. About a year later and I'm worse off than before.
I think I'm ready to walk away. How would I go about suggesting or requesting a med board? I have a great relationship with my flight doc but I'm a little uncomfortable on this topic. Would it get caught in a separation physical if I tried to go traditional?
If I transition to traditional, is it now or never for a medical retirement? Can a traditional DSG get the same medical discharge process and entitlement as AGR/AD?
