Look at it this way, when a veteran files a claim, VA is supposed to schedule him/her a C & P exam. That C & P exam will basically say if the condition is military related or not. Even though you were injured or were sick in the military, VA will not accept that as the cause of your condition until they get a medical opinion. A veteran should never file a claim without a nexus letter or statement from a physician stating it is as least likely as not caused by or the result of their military service. He/she would just be asking for VA to deny them or as Bronco said if the claim is for a presumptive condition and I have seen VA deny some of those claims.
Thank you!

I received a VA rating early last year for tinnitus and hearing loss. I recently started another claim for back pain, PES Planus(flat feet) and a ankle injury. I have proof in my service medical chart of a back injury on 2 occasion. Plus during the second visit it's document that my pain was continuous for the previous 6 months.
The arch of my feet were recorded as normal during my first enlistment. When I reenlisted in the Army after being out of USMC for 4 months i recieced a entrance medical exam. In that entrance medical exam it's documented that i have flat feet.
Lastly my ankle injury was documented in my service medical records.
What is the opinion of getting a Nexus letter with so much proof in my service medical records. Get a Nexus, YES, or NO.
