Good morning, just recieved my results from SAF/MRBP It states that it confirms the finding that the condition was not incurred in the line of duty and that it existed prior to service and was not aggravated by service. Although the incident that caused my PTSD took place during prior Army enlistment, I clearly exhibited willful negligence when I signed an AF 507 denying hospitalization within the previous year for that very illness which I am claiming LOD. If this condition indeed recur and was indeed aggravated by four weeds of Man-Days in my guard unit, this aggravationmust be due to my own intentional misconduct or willful negligence , that is this alleged recurrence and aggravation could not have occurred if I had been truthful and forthcoming about my hospitalization for PTSD which would have resulted in medical action to determine if I was indeed fit to return to active duty. It stated that I was accessed into the guard and later placed on active orders as a result of my statement specifically denying both hospitalization and the chronic and serious nature of my illness. The letter also states that the presumption of aggravation can only be overcome by compelling evidence to the contrary, that my completing a VA C&P exam only days before coming on active duty orders demonstrates the serious nature of my illness as well as previous hospitalization for this condition and also recieving a % from the VA for the previous three years doucments the serious conditons of my illness at the same time as when I came on orders. The presumption of aggravation is clearly overcome by the evidence which shows that my illness cannot have recurred or been aggravated by service in this branch. The board is satisfied that the factors did exist and that the SM is not entitled to LOD action pursant to the paragraph of the DOD instruction. They state that I continue medical care through the VA for any service disabilities that I may have The DES is responsible for maintaing a fit and viatl fighting force and only compensates conditons that lead to the termination of a member's career through unfitness. Last but not least, go to the AFBCMR.
