Yeah I was told by my PEBLO the DOD (PEB) would only evaluate my referred condition. I was surprised and then after doing research, the DOD usually only rates you for conditions that make you unfit for duty. Which means if I have more than one unfit condition (which I probably will) the DOD will rate me for all of those conditions. The VA rates you based on all your claimed conditions that are proven service connected, those that have worsened in the service, or began during service. The VA rates the condition on the severity of said condition. Your claim is sent to the VA first, the VA will decide what conditions are “fit” & “unfit”
