God knows the VA is it's own worse enemy..
The part about not getting retirement before 20 when comp is less the 30%. When did we ever to get retirement with less than 20 and only 30% comp??
Did I missed something?? Does someone own me 34 yrs retirement pay?? Or is the article wrong??

I believe you are thinking this board is part of the VA system when it appears it's from the DoD....
"The new Physical Disability Board of Review (PDBR) will examine each applicant’s medical separation, compare DoD and VA ratings, and make a recommendation to the respective Service Secretary (or designee.) A disability rating cannot be lowered and any change to the rating is effective on the date of final decision by the Service Secretary.
To be eligible for PDBR review, a service member must have been medically separated between September 11, 2001 and December 31, 2009 with a combined disability rating of 20 percent or less, and not found eligible for retirement."
