Me too-see what happens. But what bugs me is the guy who looked into it stated “his official military records” don’t state he was injured. And he replied that most of the guys in his unit didn’t know about it....

Official records are facts and are different than “guys knowing about it”...not a good sign.

For example my medical records would state if I went to the ER or had a test etc.-facts. My friends “knowing about it” is different...they’re not the same thing.

I he were injured he should have a purple heart on his DD214 (record of service and honors received, schools attended and Military Occupation Specialty, or MOS,). This document is used to get treatment etc and his medical records should document injuries for purposes of compensation. Suffering brain injury should qualify for medical and disability benefits. How ever if the injury wasn't reported and he shook off a blast induced concussion that might get by!
