YES patrol mission where there were not no HM3 corpsman becasue there werent any. you must be a NAVY Dude . if it wasnt for the Marines to cover your but or they wouldnt be here. Just answer the questions I dont need your off the walk GUESSTMATIONS My MOS is 8651 AN 0311 AND i WAS CROSSES TRAINNED IN Da Nang in a company aid man school. I still saved lives and did my job quite well in a matter of fact . saved many life wheather you liked it or not. But any way I have nothing to or need to prove to you and my miltiary records will state my case as will my DD-214 and what it said on it also. SO what ever you say only Navy dudes have thhis type of attitude NOT MARINES and anyway..I thought we faught for the same side or are you one of them ? ? ? Thanks for your time Recon Ron 1st Marine Div 1st Recon Charlie Company Ron It can only be a Navy person who acts like this.

Bonzai Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 If I understand your original questions, you are wondering what you would be awarded for PTSD and Bi-Polar with GAF scores around 40. You can not be awarded for both PTSD and Bi-Polar, either one or the other. A GAF score is just a snapshot in time, so having multiple GAF scores is better than having just one or two in your files. You talk about having stressors, so those could be used for PTSD but not Bi-Polar; which IMHO would be extremely difficult for you to get Service-Connected now. You would also have to have a nexus for your DDD. There is a whole lot more than a nexus and GAF scores that go into how a decision is made regarding awarding a rating and a Service-Connected disability to someone. With the information given, it is impossible to even hazard a guess, because you are assuming that SC will be given automatically. Sad to say, it doesn't work that way at all...
