I witnessed this first hand at Ft Gordon. Highly decorated SSG former infantry forced to reclass to Signal MOS due to brain and spinal injuries. Then misconduct discharged when he actually attended appointments he had made with VA and other medical entities instead of being at work even though his supervisor had knowledge of the appointments. The CO built up a crap record of disobeying a direct order and being AWOL. Shortly after the SSG was discharged, the CO was promoted to MAJ and sent to Hawaii as a reward for exemplary performance during his command.
