A soldier in my section has had real world shoulder problems his whole military career. I guess the PA lessened his restrictions over time. He felt the need to change something in his profile which surprised me because he really never was a bad soldier. Someone caught wind of it and I guess our company commander is going to handle it. What punishment is he likely to receive?

Art 15 for falsifying an official govt document. Anything less and I would honestly be surprised.

Reduction in rank and remedial PT for a given time then discharge if not able to meet standards. Here is where I probably catch grief. I am retired from a Army Reserve Unit and I retired as a Major from our Local EMS after 25 years. I point this out to empathize I have been in charge of troops in different capacities for a long time.
That being said, I think it is entirely inappropriate to discipline him in front of the unit. I was taught in the military in NCO Academy, Praise in public, punish in private. It does not serve any purpose to be assholes by tearing a troop down in front of their peers. This is the kind of action that causes people to take their lives, or somebody else’s life. In the civilian side of the house that’s is call bullying. I am not indicating that he should be treated like a child, but treating him like a piece of shit is not necessary either.

Since medical profiles are documents written from the medical officer to the CO of the Soldier, this soldier essentially lied to his/her CO. Company Grade Article 15 is normal, loss of one pay grade, 7 days loss of pay, 14 days of extra duty.

Depends on the individual soldier and their past performance. It will probably result in a company grade Article 15 with a reduction in rank and extra duty.

HOPEFULLY, None.

If Those Of You Whom Know Me Could Have Read My Resumes,
You'd Realize I Could Have Been A Successful Writer For Disney's Fictional Programs.
Fortunately, I Know How To Write A Resume
