Berta Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 In deed they are Skunk- please read the reply I made regarding the Reconsidertion request- I forget-do you have a service officer or vet rep? Did you NOD the denial on the PTSD-acquired Psychiatric decision? What was the exact diagnosis you were hospitalized for? The nexus-what was the specific wording in the decision that they used to question the nexus? Do you have a CAR or the PH on your DD 214? Is your DD 214 correct? Are you sure? Have you ever requested a DD 215 via a DD 149? They sent my husband 4 more awards/decorations when he filed a DD 149 (USMC Vietnam 65-66) GRADUATE ! Nov 2nd 2007 American Military University ! When thousands of Americans faced annihilation in the 1800s Chief Osceola's response to his people, the Seminoles, was simply "They(the US Army)have guns, but so do we." Sameo to us -They (VA) have 38 CFR ,38 USC, and M21-1- but so do we. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berta Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Here is the DD 149 attached- Just put Not Applicable to the injustice stuff. Men and women -the DOD made countless errors on DD 214s during the Vietnam War- They have made errors on them ever since too- If you have any doubt at all that your DD 214 is right- send them a DD 149.dd0149.pdf GRADUATE !

Berta Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I am confused here again- are you the bi polar vet in other posts under different topic? Were you diagnosed with Bi polar in service? Is this what you were hospitalized for? As I mentioned here before-I have vet friend-bi polar whose claim took 12 years- I had a hard time getting him to follow my advise on something- he just kept forgetting to do it and FINALLY -this took about 3 or 4 years-to convince him -to do it- he did it and in the long run was awarded 12 years retro 100% comp SC bi polar-from the BVA. Not his fault but the fault of his disability- Another thing that we had to convince VA was that the Navy did not understand bi polar when he was in-service ----his VA doctor-who I also knew well- stated this fact in a report---I think I was actually with him once when he saw this doctor fopr therapy- the Navy thought it was a discipline problem. It was his first manifestations of bi polar-in his disciplinary inservice reports. This might be why the VA is giving you different diagnoses here- what was it they actually hospitalized you for?

Berta Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 wait-I am confusing myself !!!!Sorry Skunk and all here- Do you get SC comp FOR bi polar? The VA only makes one comp award for mental disabilities.They lump them all together- I apologise-I thought they denied you comp on the bi polar- If the bi polar rating is not as high as it should be- per the VA Schedule of ratings here at hadit- by all means ask them for higher rating- you want to get the ratings higher then the pension you get and certainly- if you can- apply for TDIU ASAP if you are unemploed.
