Hola. A high school friend of mine recently joined up with the USAF. While waiting to go to basic, he was riding his bicycle and was hit by a car, and though it required a trip to the hospital he appeared to just have a few cuts and bruises and was sent home. A few weeks later he heads off to basic, spends a month doing lots of pushups, then one day collapses on a run. It turns out he's got micro stress fractures due to the car accident.
Subsequently he was discharged (Unclassified, undisclosed, unspecified, something like that. Not a medical discharge), and is now home. The few ex-military folks I've told have been surprised he isn't collecting disability.
My question is: If he was enlisted when they discovered the injury, isn't he entitled to a medical discharge and some disability payments?
