RATs are counting on the WWII vets to be in wheelchairs and fragile. Nam vets haven’t reached that stage yet.

Many are in their mid to late 60’s while some are older and a few are younger.

I served from 1964 to 1967 and I reached my ETS before things got really bad. I did incur several injuries while I was in the Army which really tie me down at this time.

I was declared totally disabled back in 2006 retroactive to Dec 2000. My army comp and pension “C” file records very clearly document that my injuries were “service connected”.

I still receive no compensation for pain, suffering, and disability despite several appeals and the VA itself stating on my records that everything I claimed were “more than Likely” service connected which is supposed to be an automatic granting of disability pay.
