mobie16r Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 If you was a Infantryman with the 1st Air Cav in NAM,you should have a Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB)and if you been diagnose with Post traumatic stress disorder (ptsd)you shouldn't have a problem getting service connected for Ptsd because the cib is a inservice stresssor.If your cib is not recorded on your DD Form 214,you need to apply at correction of Military records and get it updated. mobie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
