The military disability evaluation system is a world governed by dense regulations and directives. But knowing the right Army and VA rules could be the difference between your MEB case being decided fairly or unfairly.

This episode breaks down the key regulations every service member needs to understand, including:

AR 40-501 (Standards of Medical Fitness) AR 40-502 (Medical Readiness) AR 635-8 (Separation Processing) 38 CFR Part 4 (VA Schedule for Rating Disabilities) M21-1 Manual (VA Adjudication Procedures) AR 635-40 (Physical Evaluation for Retention, Retirement, or Separation)

From detailing what conditions make you unfit for duty, to how the VA rates disabilities percentage-wise, to separation procedures - these regulations control every aspect of the MEB journey. Don't go in blind.
