Effective dates for lost records after 47 years
Texas Bart posted a question in VA Disability Claims Research
Blown up/burned in 1976. Received Honorable Discharge in the mail. Tried to get my records for and kept being they were lost, there was a fire in Wisconsin, etc, etc, etc. Fast forward to 2011. I tried again, same results but I kept the paperwork. In 2011 got help from a Full Bird Colonel, who got them for me in 5 weeks, from the EXACT same people that kept telling me I didn't exist!. Since then , I have been granted 100+% disabled. How/can I apply for an earlier effective date?
