 contemplating medical retirement 31 year vet
Hi all, I thinking of going through the process for a medical retirement. I am currently in CA Army Guard. 31 total years, 3 active and 1.5 on OIF. I have a 30% disability rating from the VA. I service connected disability cause me to have problems preparing and doing the APFT. I have to go before a EQRB every two years (enlisted qualitative retention board) this could cause me to be put in a non retained status. This would cause me to be involuntarily separated. From a financial standpoint I believe being medically discharged would be a better way to go. Any advice someone can give would be appreciated. I am a full time Federal Technician (dual status) so my active drilling status is a must to keep my full time job. I think if I am medically retired I would be eligible for some type of monetary compensation. Any help on this matter would be appreciated.

Hello, I sure another person here is more informed than myself but I have read several posts on the subject of dual status and I don't think you will lose you tech job just because of a med board. Hang in there someone will post more soon I am sure. RCM7 |
