NOSC RESPAY has the power to basically fix anything, even retroactively, as long as you have top cover from your unit/CO.
This is true, but it doesn't mean they (the NOSC people) don't get butt hurt about it

I think they sometimes forget what their mission is…This is true, but it doesn't mean they (the NOSC people) don't get butt hurt about it
It's also about capability. They don't always have the right type of talent in the right place, for many different reasons. Several years ago, the Jax NOSC had an AD1 working in Ops (or whatever the pay/drills/travel processing place is called now). He was a phenominal AD1 and could get a -60 flying both fast and smooth, but administrative paperwork skills probably wasn't why the Navy made him an AD.I think they sometimes forget what their mission is…
I’ll disagree with you there. Outside of medical, the entirety of the NOSC is admin. That’s the job they signed up for. They agree to that deal when they go FTS and get stability of location/life while remaining eligible for an active duty retirement. If they want to perform their rate, they should go on active duty or go SELRES.It's also about capability.

Thanks, Flash. I'll keep that in mind. Are there ways to ensure that getting a good year for retirement and staying in good standing with the reserves happen at the same time?

Also be careful with this.The higher your VA check, the lower your drill pay, FYI.
Right when all the IA non-vol mobs went away.Also be careful with this.
The reserve is cracking down hard on VA disability. I had a few sailors affiliate for a year, do their first PHA where they must disclose their VA disability rating and get sent straight to MRR and shown the door and not have the opportunity to get to retirement.
We can thank all the malingerers who took Uncle Sam's money for drill and then said they couldn't deploy when they were tagged for MOB. It was a huge problem a few years ago and the Navy (rightfully) got pretty pissed about it.
So how do you separate from the active component without getting a VA rating? Should I intentionally hide my injuries and stuff? I know quite a few vets who had that bite them in the ass later in life.Also be careful with this.

Honestly, I don't know if anyone can answer that question unless you know a reserve doc that handles MRR paperwork who you can bribe with beer or otherwise trust to keep shit on the down-low. But yeah, the VA claim is something you have to ask for, and that's why I haven't touched them with a 10-foot pole yet. And I've probably got some metaphorical bumps and bruises I'll get fucked for later because of this.So how do you separate from the active component without getting a VA rating?

Tracking. Seen it called RER and other names. I’m highly skeptical that a real-world execution would match the on-paper concept.I'd also submit that it isn't all about IA mobs at this point anyway. I believe NRC (and CNAFR) are making a big push for ensuring our folks are ready to backfill in a meaningful way for any sort of MCO that might rear its head. Need to be deployable in that case too.
