My VSO is completely useless. She never returns calls or emails. It's makes this frustrating process even more frustrating.
Anyway, I received a letter from the VA and they state that they want "any orders that you have showing your duty status after 7/3/2012 and prior to 4/16/2012".
So I uploaded all my orders I've ever received from the Army. I also uploaded my last DD214 (I'm a reservist, I have a few) that states "nothing follows" and releases me to my reserve unit. I also uploaded my last active duty report. Other than what I've uploaded I have no idea what else I need. Does anyone have any ideas of any other possible document I should provide them? Have you been in the same boat? The letter also said they would make a decision on my claim within 15 days if I chose not to upload these documents....and even though they asked my unit for this information it is ultimately my responsibility.

If I had a serious claim I would either hire a lawyer or do it myself if I could with help from Hadit. I would not trust a VSO to do it. VSO's have caused me a world of hurt. The VFW even filed an a
