    lol. where to begin. basically, i MEB and came back with a BS rating so i appealed. and then i got my VA up and not my service connected up. so i appealed. 2.5 years later, they send me home to wait because they are tired of paying me. WTU at ft Bliss was small, they only offered up to soldiers that were going to be healed and put back in the game. my original ETS was after 4 years, plus 6 months or whatever for training including AIT. long story short, next month on the 3rd is my 7 year mark on my original 4 year enlistment. woot.

    If you're "technically on active duty" you are still technically receiving a check, assigned to a unit, and authorized full active duty benefits.

    This is what puzzled me too.

    Yea...no

    I don't get a check. 0.00 LES every month. Too much to explain and don't mean offense but everyone seems to think they understand and make assumptions that are not the facts. I'm active duty on permanent leave without pay until my appeal is over. On paper station is ft sill OK and I have never been there. Never seen it. I live in sacramento ca lol
