My P.A. And Orthopaedics doctors have informed me that my knee is unrepairable do to severe arthritis and an insane amount of scar tissue damage. How long will it take before I am separated from the army?

Once you have been referred and entered into the Ides system, it should be about two months.

SGT (Join to see) I don't have an answer for the discharge question, but I did want to offer my sympathies for the knee issues. My knee was so bad that I had it replaced this past December (I'm in my mid 40s). Hang in there and good luck.
