Tim_RVA
New here, been reading thru a bunch in the past few days. USMC 93-99, 2.5yrs at 2/2 (6mos on USS Guam), 2.5yrs at CBIRF (5x Anthrax shots), MOS 2818 Computer Tech, which at an infantry unit means radio operator. I tend to avoid doctors and never really thought of VA for any medical issues. However, a colleague of mine mentioned something that got me thinking maybe I should pursue. My knees seem to be normal wear and tear for a 40yo, but they are getting worse. I've read thru some of the posts and most reference range of motion. I don't think I have an issue there, but going up/down stairs, getting in/out of car and going from sitting to standing is painful. I don't have any injuries to reference, no post military sports or anything either. Is this something that could be considered service connected to the rigors of USMC boot camp, PT or infantry unit 25mile humps, etc?
