Hey Bigmann245, You should definitely call and see if they have everything. I called a few times during my appeal and the people at Randolph were real helpful. If you do have to send your medical records make sure you make a copy for yourself. You might be entitled to CRSC through the Navy (I am...

Hey CommoSgt, thank you for the congrats. I filed in July 2009. I can get you the case # in a little bit. Basically the board agreed that the Army used the wrong rating code which granted me 10%. They should have used the VA rating codes which of course granted me 30%. Did you file? I seriously...

Hi everyone, just wanted to let you know that I received my results from the PDBR. My separation was recharacterized as medical disability @ 30%. So yes, the PDBR unanomously agreed that my initial PEB rated me incorrectly. The entire process took a year and a half. I am to receive backpay minus...

Jason, Yeah that seems the just of it. Thank you for your help as well. Quick side note. I applied for the PDBR back in July. I received 10% from the Army and 30% from the VA upon discharge for the back fractures. The PDRB received my file in July and I have a docket number. From your...

Hi Jason, I made a claim for an increased rating of an already SC condition of 30% for S/P L1 burst and L4 compression with degenerative disc discease and residuals.

Greetings, I have a 30% rating for S/P L1 burst and L4 compression with degenerative disc discease and residuals. I recently applied for an increased rating for spondylosis which was diagnosed last March. The VA denied my claim for spondylosis. I am assuming they rated this as a residual...

Hi Jack, Thank you for the tip. I was rated 10% for Lumbar fractures, codes 5285+5299+5295 were listed on the side of my PEB. However, the VA rated 30% 5 weeks later after being discharged. Should I just send in the DoD form and see what happens or should I also prepare a brief and a...

Jason, Thank you for the quick reply. The VA assigned my rating literally 6 weeks after I got out - 30% back + 30% mental = 50%. Had another 10% tacked on earlier this year. I am certainly going to apply for the new decision. What sort of supporting documents should I submit? Is the board...

Jason, Long time reader, first time posting. I was medically discharged in 07/2002 with a 10% rating for an L4 compression fracture and L1 burst fracture from a parachute accident. VA has me at 30% for the back with an additional 40% for "others" which are related to my back for a total of...
