A friend of mine was assulted in the Navy by a fellow sailor that held a gun to his head and threatened to kill him. This was documented by the poloce and I think that he could have a good case for PTSD. He is already receives disability for something else and always said he was going to file a claim for this incident.
This fellow told me go to the VA over 10 years ago and I waited till last year. Now he tells me I told you so. He should take his own advice. Bill |

Ask how many VSO's have ever read the VBM? Can you imagine a victim of sexual assult going to a VSO and the VSO just giving them a blank stare. |

Thank you Carlie, don't think I've ever seen the personal assault form before. It seems like a good way for collecting information. On my claim stressor letter, I attached official reports that included names. Guess that helped, but still hurts because its in my cfile.
