I love how they try to pull on the heart strings by talking about his pension. So why didn’t he stay in for 20? Did he get kicked out on a medical?

No help transitioning?

The opportunities on post to find a job, the resume writing classes, the jobs fairs, the counseling... There is a ton of help for getting an outside job. And a Seal? These guys are snatched up.

None of this passes the smell test.

Except for the lack of security. That part I believe.

If it was medical reasons, he would have gone through a med board. The threshold is 30% disabled to receive full retirement benefits. I know the disability rating math is crazy, but if he has all the injuries he’s claiming, he might have reached that 30%. Plus, like I said if he just claimed PTSD and that’s it, he would have been given a minimum rating of 50%.
