Hi,
I'm in a quandary. I am a USAR Soldier, mobilized for the last three years (CONUS) who was given ADME orders from Office of the Surgeon General/Army G1, based on back surgery date, neck injury, depression, and foot injury, on 09 DEC 2010. My orders expire 06 JUN 2011. My mandatory removal date (twice passed over for LTC) is 30 JUN. My case manager advises me that I can be extended, based on Consolidated WTU Guidance, beyond MRD.
If I'm extended beyond MRD (because back surgery wasn't succesful), can I still be medically retired? Or, will I just be medically discharged w/ severance? Difference is really TRICARE for life.
Thanks,
