I am currently at UPT and we had someone on active duty get hurt and have to be pushed back a few classes until they healed and could get off DNF. 

It got me thinking, as a guard guy,u how something like that would affect me if I got on a long term DNF status. Would my orders be suspended until I healed? If so, how would that affect my access to medical treatment and TriCare? 

Obviously I'm new to the guard and flying so any insight is appreciated. Thanks.

As a Guardsman/Reservist on long-tour orders, if you get hurt while on orders and it's determined to be a Line Of Duty injury (VERY IMPORTANT), you'll stay on orders until you're healed.

I was unfortunate enough to have to spend an extra 6-9 months at UPT due to a medical issue.  I just stayed put until I was was healed, then was placed into the class that was close to the point where I went DNIF.

Thanks for all of the info. Hopefully nothing happens to me where I'll have to worry about all that but it's good to know I went get thrown to the curb if I get hurt or sick.
