HI Jason. I mentioned this to him today but we both were concerned about how it would look to re-enlist/extend then immediately drop a medical profile on them.

Hi, Jason. Thanks for your reply. I am trying to help a friend navigate this so I wanted to lay out as much as I know. The original knee injury was a LOD injury quite a few years ago while he was on orders for annual tour. His orders were extended after the knee injury for a full year and all...

Hi. A friend of mine is a current reservist with the AFR and is coming up on 18 good years. He has a medical issue (knee) which is a LOD injury and was recently reviewed by a private ortho MD. If he presents the letter from the MD to the med group, likely result will be a "4T" profile (no...

Jason, I received the paperwork from IPEB and relocations at Robins AFB (AFRC). They had a form included that was a retirement election form I filled out and returned. Apparently they process separation/discharge automatically and require the retirement election form to switch it to early...

Hi Jason. Thanks for your reply. My knee "issue" is a non-LOD injury with a poor to fair prognosis even with surgery. My private ortho doctor wrote a report which was reviewed by the AMC doctor and he stated that I am not WW qualified, can't be mobilized and cannot perform duties of my...

I was "4T" last November and finally recieved the IPEB results last week. I am deemed unfit due to a knee problem. In the letter it states that if I decline to elect FPEB (which I declined) then they will process a discharge or early retirement if I have 15 satisfactory years. I have 17 good...

Hi again and thanks again to Jason for an earlier post. I am an AF reservist 17+ good years (10 active duty) and just was placed on T4 "profile 4" last month pending decision from the IPEB at Randolph. I am currenly on a "no points, no pay" status and cannot participate in UTAs pending...

Thanks so much, Jason. I figured it was pretty straightforward. I was suprised to find this was possible. I mentioned to someone last UTA about it and losing out if I don't get to 20 and he said that it was possible to get a medical retirement under 20 but did not know the process.

Hi All. Hope someone can walk me through this. If a traditional reservist has over 15 but under 20 years total service, and has developed a health condition that is not duty related, but would render that reservist unfit to perform, it is my understanding that under 10 USC §12731 that...
