WOLF14 Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 Well, I'm at work but my 11 y/o son told me that the letter came today. I had him send a pic of the first two pages and I like what I can see. He's 11 and does not take good pics on the iphone :( so I'll have to wait until I get home to view it for myself. I will post the findings. Thanks to all for your support on this long road. V/r WOLF14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V/r WOLF14 I forgot that you were retired, and now you raise a good question that I really am not 100% on. i wouldn't think that you would use different cards from what they already give you, but also raises a question about how Tricare will work with Champ VA.......I'm sure someone here knows the answer. One thing is for sure......you are in a good position either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Chuck75 Posted July 17, 2015 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 17, 2015 The military customarily considers a retired ID card at a higher level than the disabled veteran ID card. Space available travel for retirees is just one example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOLF14 Posted July 18, 2015 Author Share Posted July 18, 2015 Hadit experts, Here is a snapshot of the VA letter i just received Friday 17 July 2015 Everything looks good (although I don't agree with the DDD decrease, I will leave it alone as I know I will be back to my doctor often as my back keeps getting worse every day and just continue to build evedince if I ever have to use it for anymore VA exams even though the letter says no further exams). I am now 100% SC P&T with no future exams and Chapter 35/CHAMPVA/Etc. Any experts out there that can attempt to calculate my retro from 90% to 100%? I have no idea when I will see any retro but I'm hoping soon. Also any advice you can provide now that I am 100% SC P&T with no future exams would be much apprecieated.snapshotWOLF14VALETTER100SCPT.pdf Lastly, thank you to all of you for your support and guidance. My family and I thank you so much and thank you for your service. V/r WOLF14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
