When my lawyer presented my bried for CUE and retro to 1971 at a DRO Hearing the DRO was scared to make any such decision except to deny it. It has gone right up the chain because what VA pension-seeking employee is going to award a vet possible 6-7 figure award on their own head? So 6 years go by as the can is kicked up and down the road.
