Also does he have to continue and finish his bootcamp, before he can be sent home?

first off, he wasn't gonna get deployed anyway. he's still in basic training, and cannot be deployed until he completes all of his schooling.
now as far as the medical condition: is it something he had preexisting, and he never told them about it? if that is the case, they will discharge him..with a fraudulent enlistment and he will NEVER get back into the military,even if the condition was waiverable or clears up. he lied, therefore he loses any shot.
if it was an injury, then depending on the severity of it, he could be discharged, sent home to heal up, or left where he is to recover.
If he suddenly developed symptoms or a condition that he was not previously diagnosed for, then he may be discharged if the condition is not waiverable. this would be an entry level separation, and not held against him in any way.
technically, the only time someone is not deployable is if they have a temporary condition, such as pregnancy or a broken leg. If a medical board determines that an individual has something that permanently prevents them from deploying, in most cases, they will be discharged entirely. If that is the case,they wouldn't bother letting him graduate, and there would be no need f r you to attend a ceremony that he will not be particiapting in.

They can really just send him home after bootcamp. In fact, they dont have to wait til after bootcamp, they can do it at anytime.
Whether he graduates or not will be up to his superiors and whether or not they're discharging him from the army or just keeping him from being deployed. They may have a deskjob in mind for him.
They should send you a postcard if he's graduating letting you know where to go and when to be there (or they'll send it to his parents).

It would depend entirely what the medical condition was as to whether he stays in the army or gets discharged for medical reasons.....In the air force if you go in as a pilot you have to sign up for 6 years....if at anytime your eyesight is not 20/20 you can no longer be a pilot but they will not let you out of the air force and you have to serve the six years you signed up for.....

If they did not discharge him right away (boot camp cost money!) then it is a curable condition.
He can be sent home on medical leave until the antibotics kick in.
If he is graduating, then family can attend.
Of course there is the possibility that he is not telling you the whole truth. For example, if he got in trouble and was being discharged with a less than honorable, then he will not graduate, but it will take a while to process him out.
Are you suspicious about something? Email me if you want.

So you are saying he has a medical condition and cant be deployed or cant be in the Army??? If they kick him out he wont have to finish boot camp. If they kick him out he wont graduate.

They can send him home tomorrow if they want to. If he is found medically unfit for the Army he won't be staying in and he won't be graduating and you won't be going to his graduation.

Yes he can be released because of certain medical conditions.
