My PEB went to JBLM on 06 JUN 2011. Based on what I've gleaned from these boards, Lewis takes 6+ weeks. My PEBLO called me this morning asking about a missing OER (has not yet been accepted at DA) and a DD214 for my orders that ended in DEC prior to WTU 12301H orders. My packet was sent...

PAcket sent to JBLM today. Letter of input from spouse, Commander, and co worker. On leave. Headed to Manchester, TN for BONNAROO!!! Thanks for all the great guidance. Will keep the forum informed. JEC

Mike, I guess that I hadn't considered that PEB might find unfitting conditions fitting. I believe there's ample evidence in ROM/ALTHA/and NARSUM to show the impact of my issues. I guess I'll ask for a formal PEB if iPEB doesn't come back as I like it, or as my MEB Outreach Counsel believes...

Sooooooo, Can I just go "down the line" in the SRD based on ROM and SWAG my own PEB percentage??? Thanks,

No idea on unfitting conditions being rated by PEB. I think they'll be rated by VA. However, if I hit 30% w/ PEB, I'd have to be more than 90% VA to get more money from the VA, based on my base salary. Also, Here are the ROMS: All are sequentially across ALTHA notes: active Pain...

Well, the narsum does. Should it be annotated on the 3947 also? Will the PEB members review the attached NARSUM and records (which are complete)? Thanks,

Hi, I just received my signed DA 3947 and NARSUM for the 7 day review. I spoke with the MEB Outreach Counsel yesterday and discussed the documents at length with my PEBLO. Below are the findings: 1.) Conditions that fail to meet retention standards IAW AR 40-501 a.) Herniated...

To answer Mike, 27 years for pay in USAR, 17 for retirement (IRR phases). I have 7.5 Active Duty years. To answer Ma Parker, I don't know. It's being circulated for signature prior to my review, at which time I'll consult w/ MEB Outreach SJA here at Fort Wood and another attorney. I'll...

Hi, I sat down w/ my MEB Doc on Monday. He had previously reviewed part of my NARSUM with me last week, and completed it for signature on Monday. he won't give me a copy until it's signed by the Deputy Commander of the MTF. He told me that I had three conditions which exclude me from service...

Update: I got my orders through 02 DEC 2011. My MEB Doc has finished my NARSUM and is passing around for signature. I've gone over it with him and I believe that it captures all my issues. I'll watch what's going on w/ DFAS as 30 JUN (MRD) nears.

Thanks for the tip on pay. I'm really in a jam if DFAS drops me as I don't have 20 "good" retirement years in USAR and am not eligible for AC retirement. I'll keep an eye on my LES. Thanks,

Update... My PCM gave me PULHES 133111 as a result of a failed back surgery on 04 JAN and problems with a neck surgery (ROM) from three years ago. I'm MEB/PEB bound. MTF S1 is requesting 180 day extension and I've been assigned a PEBLO. Jason is right that the majority of responsibility for...

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...

Well, amazingly I got a phone call this morning from a COL in DA office of the surgeon general (OTSG). She advised me to take a breath, relax, and not worry as she had published my orders this morning. Surprisingly, my orders were Medical Retention Processing rather that Active Duty Medical...

OK, my first post on this issue was 17 JUN. Now, I've finally got some resolution, sort of. Since the first post, and many many care visits, I've been having back/leg problems which have finally been narrowed down to pinched nerve/bulging discs at L4-5 and L5-S1. Been to physical therapy...

Also, the resignation would only be in order to avoid discharge due to Mandatory Removal Date and be able to continue in USAR to get to 20 "good" years and get retirement pay at age 60. Thanks, Jeff

Jason, Again, thanks for the speedy reply. When I spoke to the PA, I laid out all the issues: 1.) Disc replacement, Spine Doc at Univ of MO says 4 years or less to fusion. Radiculopathy present now. Treated now for 7 years (40-501 description would be "chronic problem not responding to...

Hi, I met w/ Chuck last week. He advised me that, as long as I can get to MEB, I should be recommended for medical retirement. However, I met w/ a PA at our SRP site today and he advised me that MEBs do not typically release officers. He prefaced this by saying that his experience is...

Thanks. Have reached out for the appointment. Appreciate your assistance. Jeff

OK, That makes more sense (though I'm sure you're not seeking my validation :) ). My boss, COL, certainly supports my position in requesting MMRB/MEB and I believe that the GCCM will also support. My issue is that my pain isn't getting any better and I'm geographically limited in...
