Deploying with a VA disability percentage?

I get you. 70% sounds high. VA Disability rating is based on employability in civilian sector. Military disability is based on your MOS and your job requirements and is more stringent becasue rating is limited to only your MOS. You can get a percentage for deploying and being exposed to dysentery that causes you IBS or a pesky cough that wont go away due to burn pits, or a scar from a line of duty injury, or even a rash...each one of these can be rated, lets say, at 10-20% each and it adds up... but the Soldier can continue to perform their MOS and deploy. My MSG had to get emergency surgery on active duty to remove her uterus due to cancerous fibroids and got 90% from VA...but she can still do her MOS just can't have kids.

I'd like to know myself. It sounds like a scam to me. Most service members with a permanent profile are usually discharged unless they are reclassified in a position that does not interfere with a profile or jeopardize others in a combat situation.
