[QUOTE="gibbo86, post: 830154, member: 96212"] Hi I was in the Army (reg) and left 2 years ago, but have since been diagnosed T1. It is individually assessed as to whether to keep or discharge depending on rank/trade. MLD of any form stops you promoting, but if they could put you in the right role then in theory you may be able to stay. For example, another Captain was discharged with T1 as he couldn't fill any staff roles, had he been a Major then it would have been a different story. If you are medically discharged (I'm working off memory) I believe you get your immediate pension at the rank you are. However, your reporting officer can look that up and clarify it for you (and they should be). [/QUOTE]
