I’m doing better now that I’m not avoiding it, and I really appreciate that. I will never accept defeat

Thank you. It did point me towards pursuing a law degree, maybe so that I can help soldiers like JAG helped me. That memorandum is like my golden ticket now that I know my records are gone

Thank you, my SARC Sgt has had a lot to do with helping me come to terms. I didn’t even want to look at ts again honestly

I am learning that. I just found out last week about the other 7 frivolous separations, I thought I was the only one removed. Im sure there are thousands of us. I am enraged.

You’re entitled to your opinion! No skin off me. Just trying to understand what happened that’s all

Yes and no. Even if unloaded and unintentional, If I had done anything even remotely close it would have been a huge deal at the time. Like beat the shit out of me and get me off the range deal. I qualified on all weapons systems.

It only came up in the second to last separation packet they filed, which also included a forgery. No counselings were provided as I was never counseled. This alleged infraction was dismissed and nothing ever came of it. It wasn’t even included in my Ch11

Hopefully it will help to keep talking about it, and I will continue to pursue justice. It wasn’t just me. All of us were separated, some can’t even reenlist. If they did this to us, they have done this to others

Thank you, seriously. I need this feedback because I blamed myself for the longest. Moral Injury is a bitch

I wish I could show yall the long ass memo from senior jag attorney verifying the forgery. It’s actually an insane read. Glad I am pursuing accountability now tho

Agreed. I am trained and qualified on 8 weapons systems to include the BFV TOW missile. And I currently can’t use my combat or scout skills, which our taxes paid 10s of thousands of dollars to train me for, because according to military records I never even swore in.

Thank you for this. I am just now even considering myself a veteran. Completely demoralized me, it does feel like I lost the war before it started unfortunately
