I guess I'll jump in here too, but let me warn you mine is not nearly as impressive.  I blew out my knee in Boot Camp and was misdiagnosed by a Navy doctor, resulting in an admin discharge.  It was properly diagnosed by an orthopedic specialist on my second trip to MEPS.  My paperwork says prior service, permanently disabled.  I petitioned all the way to Marine Corps Headquarters to reinlist, but got a no-go.  I fought it for almost 10 years and finally gave up.  I'm not as young as I used to be, but given the chance I'd be back on the Island tomorrow!
