Question
Philip Rogers
A friend was killed, about 6 months ago, when his pickup swerved into an on-coming vehicle. He had been rated 100% P&T, in '08, for PTSD. He had active duty from 9/77-9/80, 3/03-6/03, 6/03-1/04 and Army NG from 3/03-4/04. He'd been to Iraq where he operated trucks, in convoys. His wife put in for DIC, stating his death was caused by him falling asleep due to his VA meds, but it was denied. No surprise. Death certificate states basically multiple trauma due to MVA. Myself and other friends feel he either committed suicide or perhaps was having a flashback to when he was driving in a convoy. He was receiving dialysis and was on his way home, from that, when he crashed. Need to help her win DIC claim. I need to find out what was SOP when operating in convoys at the time. Thanks!!
