Q: Will your husband be able to finish PA school as a civilian if the military relieves him from the IPAP?
A: That is uncertain at this time. Although the accredited school (University of Nebraska Medical Center) is a civilian school, we have not ventured that route as of yet. It is a shame for my husband to have completed 26 months of a 29 month program. It is something we would need to ask legal counsel about.
Q: What is your husband in trouble for?
A: He is in trouble because he filled out a piece of paper incorrectly. This medical profile was given to him by his preceptor who also happened to be his healthcare provider at the time. It was signed by the provider, not filled out, and handed to my husband. He was told to use it if he needed it.
Q: Soldiers don't get in trouble for making a mistake like that, WHY a GOMOR?
A: Gomor 1.0 was most definitely for the mistake on the medical profile form. The commander didn't appreciate my husbands honesty in an email (months prior about an unrelated matter) and hung him for a simple mistake.
Q: Where did GOMOR 2.0 come from?
A: Your guess is as good as mine! When gomor 1.0 was to be filed [locally], it was rescinded and he was handed a brand new one. It was as if the first was not enough to get him relieved from the program and the command found any and all reason to add to a new gomor and issue it.
Q: Is your husband being kicked out of IPAP, the Army, or both?
Q: Have you contacted the media or your congress representatives about this matter?
A: Yes. See 26 Days Part I & II There is a full investigation being conducted by government officials about the command climate at Tripler.
Q: What does your husband do all day if he is not doing clinical rotations?
A: He reports to the library at Tripler. He sits there and waits. Seriously, that's what he does. It's like detention. He reads a lot.
