My Nephew just recieved a letter from DVA dening depression, hip condition and back condition. Next step is Washington they say. Ok when it goes to Washington do you believe that we should go to support his claim. also they have accepte the claim for PTSD due to sexual trauma in service, so would or could we claim depression due to that? In the DVA letter I have yellowed some sentence's out one of them state something that they say was mentioned during his appeal which was never mentioned, I was there with him and that question was never asked. Another talkes about Ofiicial Military personnel files but nothing about medical files. and then they state that the fact remains that he denied chronic low back pain at the time of discharge. He did not have a physical at time of discharge, he just answered a question sheet and becuase he was home on an emergency leave and did not want to go back he answered all the questions NO, if they would look at his medical file they could see that all of those questions where wrong. He had no help and no physical, what does any one think about continuing this?
