Question
NMNavVet
I received my VA disability claim decisions (one service-connected at 0% and the rest denied). In review, of VA's "breakdown " of making their decision on my denied disabilities, I noticed two disabilities had the following remarks: "Service treatment records show that _______ manifested while in the service." I mentioned these conditions based on my VA and private medical records, but was surprised, that it was mentioned in my service records. I "combed" through my service treatment records but cannot find such entries. One of my questions, where in my service records did they find these existing conditions? I am going to appeal, but can I as a Veteran, have access to the VA's examiners decisions or can they reveal where these conditions are located in my service records?

Don't know what VA hospital you visit or have your EVAL at, but in BHAM, AL I get mine from patient records three to four days after the exam. You can also down load them from your Health Vet website

There could be a number of reasons for this. If you had paper STRs, be sure to check the back of every page. Back when this was the norm, docs loved to just find an empty section of a page and us
