I was reading the cut off date was Sept 25th, you had to reply or "show interest". Apparently, according to PR article only 6.6 % of what they wanted to take the early retirement did so. So, it is to late, if the PO says they want to separate you because you injured off duty, and didn't understand the early out, that they were going to can you anyways, and no one explained this. Any advice. I sure appreciate someone's advice.
