I know I’m a little late, but congratulations! I retired in 2018, and wish I’d retired at 20 instead of 21 years of service. I did the contract gig for a year, then came home and did all of my VA stuff. I was put in for a MEB 2 weeks before my six month this out before I could start my VA while still on AD. That stopped it and I fought the MEB, and got it overturned to a regular retirement just a few weeks before starting terminal. During all of that mess I accepted the contract gig and did my VA stuff with a month remaining from 1 year my official retirement date, so everything was back paid to me. Make sure you maximize your benefits and you earned them.

Enjoy life as a civilian, I sure as hell do! My stress level is 90% less then my last few years on AD.

Get your hearing carefully checked, before discharge. It will be worth money to you later.

Thanks everyone! I'm staying busy as a CNC machinist student. The VR&E program is paying my tuition and monthly stipend. I have a line on a good job working for a nearby AR15 manufacturer after graduation. Life is good!

Thanks, Dinny

Sounds like a good path to take.


Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue.

Thanks for serving!

Don't turn your medical records over to any civilian doctor, you mat not get them back.

Good luck.
