Military and Law Enforcement
If you're current or retired Military or Law Enforcement, post in this thread and send me a copy of your creds via PM. Once you do, we'll change your status on the board to LE/MIL.
Not a huge deal, but one of these days we may have an exclusive LE/MIL board to post in.
Just a little thank you to those who have served or are serving.
ETA: You get a larger Mailbox with your LE/MIL service here.

What no love for discharged for a medical reason and honorably? Between this and never winning any of the contest I'm starting to think my Wife runs this forum.

Yeah back when I was in college I decided that I would like to take a 2 week paid vacation during the summer when I wasn't in school. So then I enlisted in the Air National Guards and was to be a Crew Chief at Mcghee Tyson in TN. Passed my physical and the following weekend I blew up my knee playing backyard football. I had a complete ACL tear, complete MCL tear and meniscus tear all on my left knee. I had surgery and got a 100% release from my surgeon. I passed my physical and waited for my date with basic. Shortly there after I was called to the recruiter's office thinking I was getting basic dates, instead there was my NGB Form 22. They told me that they could not take me because of rebuit body parts; on the form it said medical disqualification prior BMT, disharge was honorable, inelgibile for re-enlistment and 9 months and 12 days of service. Funny the Gov still classifies me as a veteran even though I've never even been to basic, I don't consider myself one though. I really wanted the 2 week paid vacation in the summer.

Wow, they gave you credit for 9 mos.? I'm not sure, because I came in under the old Viet Nam "Era" (joined after 'Nam in 75) G.I. Bill. But 180 day's good time and an Honorable discharge used to get you full benefits under the G.I. Bill. You ought to check that out. They changed the "G.I. Bill", mostly educational benefits, a few times while I was in, although you were grand fathered to what you had at the time, but the rest stayed the same. You may think you never need them, but you might someday. Especially if you want to do graduate work, start a business, or something.

I'm in but it's illegal to duplicate creds. Let me know how to proceed.

Just curious, Tact, but since when? I've had to submit copies of my DD 214's to Univerisities (through the local VetRep), prospective employer's, etc.. Is this something new? (could be, I retired in '95). Maybe illegal to duplicate ID card? If this is true, so be it, I'm not crazy about sending, especially via 'net, copies of them, but I've never been told it's illegal to make a copy for a school to claim VA status, or a prospective employer, along with a resume, application, etc..
Thanks,

My chain told me that not only a photocopy, but even a picture of your military ID is against regulations, and punishable.
PM on the way, Thanks!
