SPC Trevor Berryhill5254974<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>This could get long. <br />I served my first contract in Active, 6 years. Once I ETS'd and had a family I got the itch right after my IRR time was up, and I enlisted in the Guard, and I'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've retired me. I don'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't have to wait until i'm 60 to receive it. I'm so confused about this entire thing, any help to be had out there?How does medical retirement work for someone who has both NG and active duty time?2019-11-19T21:21:21-05:00SPC Trevor Berryhill5254974<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>This could get long. <br />I served my first contract in Active, 6 years.

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.Response by SFC Robert Walton made Nov 20 at 2019 9:51 AM2019-11-20T09:51:28-05:002019-11-20T09:51:28-05:002019-11-19T21:21:21-05:00
