  1. I hope I'm posting this in the right forum. I'm so distraught over my situation & am desperate for some help. My son recently served a year in Afghanistan. While on a mission, he was involved in an IED explosion & suffered a TBI & other minor injuries. The soldier who stepped on the IED lost both legs during the explosion. My son assisted in saving the soldier's life & was later awarded an ARCOM for his actions. My son spent several months in recovery suffering from obvious symptoms of PTSD. He was eventually diagnosed with PTSD while in recovery. He received a Purple Heart for injuries suffered in Afghanistan upon his return to the states. He has had a difficult time adjusting since returning 9 months ago. Unfortunately, it seems that he is now getting railroaded by his platoon. He has been fearful of contacting anyone because he's afraid of making the situation worse. He was recently asked by his CO to sign a paper denying him the opportunity to re enlist due to a personality disorder. I am terrified that the next step is gonna be a discharge for personality disorder which will cause him to lose all his benefits. He will ETS in the next couple of months. What steps are safe to take at this point? Can someone, please, point us in the right direction? I'm afraid time is not on our side. Any advice is much appreciated.
