I found this site a few weeks ago and have been reading it everday. My husband who is a Ex Marine Vietnam Vet put his first claim in June '06,and still waiting for a C&P exam. Although he has a SO he has not recieved much help, if any from him. My husbands claim is for PTSD,Hernia surgeries, Hearing loss/ringing in the ear,and a injury to his thumb.(He recieved a PH for). I know that I will be back here with other questions,but for now what I would like to know is, does my husband need to write a statement for each of his claims. Something that he needs to bring with him when he goes for each of his C&P exams. I would appreciate any help that you can give us,since we are so lost with all that needs to be done. Thank you!
