How does medical retirement work for someone who has both NG and active duty time? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/how-does-medical-retirement-work-for-someone-who-has-both-ng-and-active-duty-time <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>This could get long. <br />I served my first contract in Active, 6 years. Once I ETS&#39;d and had a family I got the itch right after my IRR time was up, and I enlisted in the Guard, and I&#39;ve spent 3 years here. About a year ago my COC noticed my attitude was miserable and had me checked by a psych. They determined I have pretty bad PTSD and initiated a med board. I was put on Non-Traditional drill status and told my drill was seeing the shrink. In that time I also decided to apply for VA disability. Rated 90%. The Medboard finally finished and they&#39;ve retired me. I don&#39;t know how retirement works for soldiers in my situation. Does it go off of guard standards since I retired from there, or active duty standards because I have more time there? Is there a 3rd option?<br /><br />Second, my PEBLO told me I qualify for CRSC, and DFAS has told me I don&#39;t have to wait until i&#39;m 60 to receive it. I&#39;m so confused about this entire thing, any help to be had out there?

You can also see a VSO=Veterans Service Officer the service is free and usually they have a VSO in each county. Good Luck and Thank you for your Service.
