Bookmarked for viewing in segments if necessary (work-related time constraints). Very compelling points he makes.

One thing I’m curious about (ONLY curiosity). He states he’s a disabled veteran, but I can’t find anything re what the disability is. Deployment-related PTSD maybe? (Saying that because one photo I saw shows him seated lengthwise across the front seat of his truck, and all limbs appeared to be intact.)

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

derek just made the scene last week & we’re learning more about him every day, it seems.

I could see a touch of PTSD in that 1st video I watched last week. he did say his MOS was in “aviation”, but nothing more specific.

fwiw, I rate derek as the redneck version of patel patriot??

seems to have a good message & hope to see more from him.

And you shouldn't be able to find it unless he tells you. Hundreds of conditions are ratable. Unlike a normal system, you start with 100% and your highest rating comes off (say a 40%). But you have 3 40% ratables, next one worth 40% of 60 and the last 40% of 36 for a total disability rating of 80%.
