Thanks

Ken

[Audio C&p Results 2009]

My question is why was an increase not included when I had the test a few months ago? I do not know where the VA draws the line in sand for hearing lost

Thanks

[How Long To Get Copy Of "c" File?]

FYI

Update It has taken 76 days from request date to recieve date

[How Long To Get Copy Of "c" File?]

It has been two years since I filed my 21-526.

In August 2009 I files my NOD.

In August 2009 I requested a copy of my "C" file and still waiting?

My local VSO is no help he is appointed by the county government board, family connection.

An Attorney told me that I should not use any of my state political aids, that would just red flag my file and slow it down.

This has been a very discouraging process and even more difficult to stay motivated to push your claims.

Thanks for any replies

[Immunization Records Any Benefits]

As I zig zag this VA claim process and benefits of information it just occurred to me today I do not have a copy of my Immunization record. I was in the Army 1964 ~ 1967 any hidden benefits or useful information within these records?

I have requested a copy but wanted your input.

[Just Your Opinion On A Medical Examination.]

FYI

Without my NCV/EMG my problems with peripheral neuropathy in all four limbs would have been missed. This helped my case to be awarded SSAD in back to 2005.

I have been attempting to get a 1969 VA Claim reopened for lower back pains budging disc that created some problems n my legs.

Move follow to the test it would only help and not hurt your claim Just MHO

[Maximum Soldier Height For Army In 1964]

A few years ago I was 80" tall now close to 79+" and now I am 63 years old

Io both induction and separation medical exam list me as 79"

I hurt my lower back in basic training even have a buddy statement. For 1 1/2 years I was a driver for an M60-A1 tank with the Tee Bar steering. I believe that the vibration and me being folded up in driver compartment added to some of my back problems.

FYI, I could stand flat footed in the loaders area and look out the loaders hatch on top of turret. Was I to talk for tanks I think yes but @ 18/19 years old I had a blast

[Maximum Soldier Height For Army In 1964]

In 1964 when I entered the Army I was measured at the height of 79” an my medical records but was actually 80” tall. Does anyone know what the maximum height was in 1964 for a solider to enter Army? During my 3 year tour the old cots/beds were always to short. Since I have a budging disc I want to include my height exceeded the Army’s max height as a condition that aggregated my disc problem.

Thanks for any replies
