Good Afternoon,
Looking for some advise. I recently went through the Medboard process. My results as follows;
THE BOARD FINDS THE SOLDIER IS PHYSICALLY UNFIT AND RECOMMENDS A RATING OF 60% AND THAT THE SOLDIER'S DISPOSITION BE PERMANENT DISABILITY RETIREMENT.
DOD (retired pay) is at 1785.00
VA rating @ 70% is at 1638.25
Is this a full Medical retirement?
Do I have to select one or do I keep both payouts? I was told I have 10 days to sign?
Do I receive tricare for my family?
I'm very thankful, but weary at the same time. I have been fighting this for 5 years
Thank you for the help! Its much appreciated.
