Apparently this Vet and his brother were both Army, stationed in Vietnam, and their brother was Navy, stationed in Nam too; anyway, the one went on R&R to the US and once home he decided to help his father out and never went back to NAM.
No one ever tried to contact him ever, including the Army. He continued to help his family all these years. He was diagnosed with Diabetes, some years back, IHD, and other presumptive diseases. His brother asked if he would be eligible for benefits? Seems like he would be under a court martial, yes or no?
Meanwhile these other 2 brothers who served there both have diabetes, and IHD are both have been 100% TDIU VA since 2000, and 2002.
I just recently met this brother who was filling me in with this info, and I was at a loss for any of this. Usually someone asks more questions for conditions related to service and honorable discharges.
