There is a guy in another unit inside my battalion, who has been on profile since I returned from my recent deployment. He seems to want to go in another direction (ie: a second opinion, or surgery to correct what PT can’t do). How long can he stay on a profile for his shoulder? For those who want to know, he can’t do a PT test cause of his shoulder?

The medical system and command will figure out what it is to do in the end and not the Soldier. SSG Manuel said it right. Since this guy is not in you direct line of site you should not be concerned anyway. I am sure the unit is aware. Thank you for your service.

It's my understanding, and supported by our BDE medical readiness NCO at a briefing yesterday, that temp profiles are now written with expected recovery time included. When that profile is up, the Soldier can be expected to perform full duty and full APFT the next day. If the Soldier is still having problems, they need to get reevaluated by a doctor.
