Reedited - Incorrect. I caught my error as I was re-reading your post.
I respectfully disagree with the incorrect edit. I am looking for, and would have loved to already have a copy of the publication the excerpt I uploaded comes from, but this is what it states for those who don't download attachements.
Note in Section V that each V1, V3, and V4 (the ones that pertain to the PEB unfit finding memos I've seen.) all state that the condition is
NOT what the code states. So this is what it seems to mean to me:
E.G. An unfit memo with V1-No means that the disability
IS based on disease or injury incurred in the line of duty. Due to the double negative of no on the code and not in the description. The others would follow the same double negative semantics. This was what my OMBUDSMAN told me as well.
The V1 code could be proved by checking anyone who is receiving military retirement and has V1-No, because if no meant that the injury was not in the line of duty then they would not be elegible for benefits.
I am open to further discussion on this topic. I love disagreements, as they really bring out new ways of thinking which often lead us to the truth.
