What is the Army policy on medical hold orders that take a service-member over 18 years of service into sanctuary? The Marine Corps requires Marines to sign a sanctuary waiver, and will withhold medical hold orders until they have it, even if it means demobilizing and then having to remobilize a Marine. I understand that the Army issues the orders and then if the service-member is found unfit, they are gone, but if they are found fit then they can claim sanctuary and finish out to 20 YOS. The Marine Corps claims their policy aligns with the other services, but that does not seem correct.
