Long time lurker, first time poster. I searched through the forums and found some great information but nothing that exactly lined up with what I am looking for.
Here are my stats:
I am an Army Reserve Major (O4) currently assigned to a TPU unit (monthly drills and three weeks of annual training). I have four operational/combat deployments and receiving 80% VA disability. I am considering whether to stay in the reserves but I am at the point where my injuries make it challenging to continue and the concern that any future combat mobilizations would aggravate my injuries.
My ideal outcome would be to separate from the Army Reserve, enter the Permanent Disability Retirement List, and receive Army Reserve (not VA) retirement/disability now versus age 60.
Is it possible? What exactly is it called? How do I get it started?
Thank you in advance.
