A friend of mine has begun the MEB process for a host of serious reasons. However these problems and profile resulted in a body state that... is well... seriously large. It is very unlikely that he will be able to lose weight at all while on this profile. What is the regulatory guidelines for flagging soldiers and putting them out while they are in the MEB process? Are they protected?

Having a profile does not exempt you from from the standard, there are other ways of maintaining body composition.&lt;br&gt; SFC(P) Private RallyPoint Member Sun, 06 Apr 2014 21:55:06 -0400 2014-04-06T21:55:06-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/can-a-soldier-who-is-begining-the-med-board-process-be-flagged-under-600-9-and-be-forced-out-before-his-meb-is-done?n=163365&urlhash=163365 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I found this on twitter... :/ Not good if this is really happening.....<br /><br />#Military #army #Soldier whistle blows-poor #medical treatment,improper discharges 2 avoid MEB. #RT #retweet #news <br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="https://freedommisinformation.blogspot.com/b/post-preview?token=dDOn0kYBAAA.9bzm2Wh4UpYp4UmaJZgI1A.VXBQd1WBecSCabHALJCXJQ&amp;postId=">https://freedommisinformation.blogspot.com/b/post-preview?token=dDOn0kYBAAA.9bzm2Wh4UpYp4UmaJZgI1A.VXBQd1WBecSCabHALJCXJQ&amp;postId=</a> [login to see] 8954854&amp;type=POST … … PO1 Patrick Aldridge Wed, 25 Jun 2014 13:08:41 -0400 2014-06-25T13:08:41-04:00 2014-04-06T10:47:00-04:00
