Go for it. The worst that will happen is that your claim will be denied. I expect it will, but it will only cost you a few minutes of time to file. You can do that online. In fact I think you are required to, at least in my county.
The address is: https://ui.tn.gov/
Hours of availability:
Sunday 8 a.m. until 1 p.m. Central Time
Monday - Friday 7 a.m. until 6 p.m. Central Time
The reason I asked the questions I did was because I was thinking along the same lines as Baz and SlotCar in their posts above.
Baz is right; in order to qualify for FMLA (Family and Medical Leave Act), you must have been at TMC for 12 months. So that's out. I didn't realize you'd not been there that long.
As SlotCar said, I think you should contact your unit. ARNG "might" be responsible for paying you until you are fit for full duty, or at least protecting your off-duty job until you are released to return to work.
It just does not sit well with me that you should lose your job because of an injury you received while serving our country, and this looks bad on TMC. BTW, I thank you for that service.
Having said all that, perhaps we should get back to your original question about termination on your DAC. "Termination" means only that your employment ended, not that it ended badly. Maybe you could just call up your FM and tell him you are concerned about this, and ask him exactly what is going to be put on your DAC. You should also ask if you are "eligible for rehire". If he tells you that you're not eligible for rehire, that will mean you should not count on them as positive reference.
Hoping everything works out for you.
