Blue Water Ao Widows

[Berta]

If you are a widow whose husband had VSM and was Blue Water Navy- and he died of a AO presumtive disability and VA had denied your DIC or you never applied,

this is the email I received from NVLSP:

(Take this to your vet rep and if they dont understand it-contact me under any AO topic here and I will email them.)

Dear Ms. Simmons:

The same advice regarding veterans applies to widows with DIC claims – file a re-opened claim, new claim or appeal as appropriate. See our website for more information:
