Re: "Concurrent receipt"
Thanks again for the suggestions and help on this, gentlemen. I talked to my father last night and his situation is under review with a good chance of being changed. His morale is greatly improved.

Re: "Concurrent receipt"
Thanks, Ranger Silverback!

Re: "Concurrent receipt"
Thanks, Ranger PocketKings. I suspected as much, but I lack experience in this area (I thankfully separated with no issues or disability). I wanted to check on this via ArmyRanger.com, as I thought there might be a chance my dad was just getting jerked around by the system. "Biggest bunch of bu...

Re: U.S. Soldier Nabs Bank Robbers
An ROTC classmate of mine was involved in something along these lines back in 1999.

I'll go a step further. Read the book Hot Zone. Take that, and everything you "know" about NBC warfare, and expand that exponentially. You are entering a very dark place. You will be exposed to many things that only exist in most peoples' nightmares. Be ready for it. I'd rather eat a bull...
