The AF reg conflicts with DoDI 1332.38. Even if the condition is not LOD, the PEB needs to assess the condition for fitness. On the active side, EPTS conditions are covered in the MEB and assessed by the PEB. Has the VA ever rated the conditions the AF states are LOD no?

Thanks for the Reply Mr. Parker,
The VA has not rated the conditions prior to me entering in to IDES. The ANG has also not necessarily said they were LOD no with the exception of the anxiety that the Dr. who entered me in to IDES said it wasn't in the Line of Duty and his reason was because it wasn't the reason I wasn't working and it wasn't the main boardable condition. I will send you a copy of the SF 502 where he documented this. Keep in mind the same doctor referred me in to IDES, Was the Chair of the DAWG, and the MEB President... I should have my proposed ratings back soon and when I do I will let you know if the VA rated me for my Anxiety, and Shoulder condition and what they rated each of them at.
