I am in hopes that somebody may have the answer to this. I have read a couple posts regarding injuries during BCT but none really applied to the National Guard. My wife is currently in BCT and has informed me that she had gone to sick call due to extreme pain in her thigh, hip and legs. Upon X-ray they found stress fractures on each pelvic bone. She apparently had to go for an MRI today because the doctor believed there may be more stress fractures possibly on her femur bones. I have no heard from her and suspect I won't know the results of that for a couple weeks or so.
Now my question is what will happen being that she is on active orders for BCT through the National Guard? I have read a couple memorandum and policies that state that everything will go through her NG unit. So does this mean she will be sent home for con leave and be re-evaluated here locally at home before being shipped back out for training again, and if she is found to be unfit will she go through a med board here or have to go back to BCT to undergo a Med board?
I am just concerned as she is the type to start signing things when she is upset and I don't want her to sign an ELS not knowing exactly what it is.
Please no crazy replies about her not deserving anything because she is in BCT when she got injured. She has attended drill prior to shipping out and has been in BCT since May 9th. Any info is appreciated. Thank you
