Scenario: Reservist on 30+ day ADT orders, fractured elbow, aggravated old SC rotator cuff and messed up neck, returns to unit, 3 months later fails PT test, 3 more months goes to neurosurgeon due to pain and muscle spasms, facing spine surgery (metal supports in neck), transfers to Retired Reserve and unit deploys. Veteran (20+ yrs with multiple DD 214's) comes to me 4 years later, was never told about VA, now 80% SC.

Is this also a case where they maybe should have been medically ...

I am trying to assist a Reservist, 18+ years, VA rated 90% largely due to injuries on his last deployment, was extended on AD for surgery to fix a broken shoulder socket, but released with out counseling or boarding, in WI, assigned to a unit in NJ for activation, NJ unit U'ing him out, I believe he should have been kept on duty and medically retired.

Is my thinking correct? Who can I get him in touch with to accomplish this?

Thank you for your service!!
