First post

Well, this is the first post. This blog will cover the development of my solo (for now) law practice. To give you a little context, I recently got out of the Army as a JAG Officer. Before that, I was in the National Guard and I got mobilized after 9/11. At the time I was in command of the 1166th Transportation Company. After spending a little under two years at Ft. Bragg, NC, I decided to apply for an active commission as a JAG.

My experience in the JAG Corps was...interesting. I won't go into it all now. Just suffice it to say that my last assignment was representing Soldiers at the Texas Physical Evaluation Board. That is the administrative Board that makes recommendations regarding injured and wounded Soldiers' disability ratings (if they are unfit for continued military service). I took a real liking to representing those going through the process. So, I decided to stick with it after I got out.

That gives you enought background to follow the arc of this story. One thing I hated to see while I was on active duty was the lack of good information on the military disability evaluation system. So, I put up a website to put out good info to those who need it. It can be found at PEBFORUM.COM. I am writing about this for reason I will explain later. But for now, if you have personal need, check out the site. And if you know a wounded warrior who may benefit, pass that along, too.
