    VA Nomination?

    Thanks Padre. Hope you get good news soon as well. We know he still needs the appointment (and the waiting is stressful) but getting the nomination news was nice as we head to Annapolis to attend the Military Bowl on Monday.

    VA Nomination?

    Protein in Urine

    Update -- Got the letter from DODMERB as fully qualified; a new test after 3 days of no workouts was negative. I understand from a former DODMERB official that urine tests are no longer required but that some contract doctors/companies do not seem to have gotten the word.

    Protein in Urine

    Just joined the forum and boy, wish I'd known enough to talk to my son sooner. He works out daily, is a two sport athlete (soccer and swimming), lifts weights and is preparing for the CFA. He hydrated before the physical today but not to the max and he worked out yesterday. The physical by...
