[QUOTE=Tired;8646697] The joy of being a GMO is that it's a Marine LtCol who signs my FitReps, not a doctor. That gives me a degree of latitude that I will likely never experience again in military medicine.


Having a LtCol write the FitRep (as if a LtCol ever actually writes the fitrep, we write our own) is one of the absurdities of GMO-land. If you have a good haircut, wear your uniform correctly, show up to meetings, and PT, then they think you're the best doctor in the world, even if you don't know a thing about medicine.
