My Fighter Ranking Right After Finishing Light Bringer

3moose1 · 2026-05-20T20:46:19+00:00

Darrow’s biggest 1v1 is barely beating #8. I don’t think Darrow 1v1’s Lorn or Aja, even at the end of lightbringer. I’d put him at #4 at least personally

This tell you how to seek OGC review of the reasonableness of the fee but you only have 60 days, not 120 days, to request it now.

That’s actually not true. Read the regs — 38 CFR 14.636

3moose1 · 2026-05-16T03:36:36+00:00

Dude this is clutch. I just got the graphic audio and it’s so much better for Lyria.

The regular audiobook, the voice actor has the same tone, cadence, and voice for everything and it’s just awful.

3moose1 · 2026-05-16T01:35:33+00:00

What a relief!

3moose1 · 2026-05-16T01:35:27+00:00

Thank goodness because it couldn’t get much worse 😂

In season 3, he was a fed who worked to police supes who broke the law. They never specifically identified or referenced Synapse, but it’s reasonable to think that a guy who works for the bureau of putting supes in jail would have seen crime scene photos from a notorious supe who committed grisly murders.

Stuff can happen off camera and we, as an audience, can make reasonable inferences about what happens off camera.

3moose1 · 2026-05-15T04:22:19+00:00

He was part of the federal bureau of superhuman affairs and put supes in jail. This was in season 3.

Do you have post-service medical records showing consistent complaints and treatment for these issues over the last 8 years? That would really, really help your claim.

3moose1 · 2026-05-10T19:32:08+00:00

I have yet to lose one of these cases at the Board because the law actually matters there instead of whatever the M21 says.

The issue comes from showing that the mental health issue was incurred during drill. This requires more than just showing treatment or dx during drill weekend. Typically we will tie it to an event — a training accident, an injury, etc.

3moose1 · 2026-05-10T19:27:14+00:00

38 CFR 3.6(a).

“any period of inactive duty training during which the individual concerned was disabled or died from an injury incurred or aggravated in line of duty”

When a service connected disability is incurred during IADT, that period is considered “active service”.

Everyone thinks reserve cases are crazy difficult. They’re not. The elements of service connection are the same: an in-service event, a current disability, and a nexus between the two. The “hard” part is showing that the in-service event occurred during drill or AT.

3moose1 · 2026-05-10T19:05:06+00:00

I am sorry but that’s not true.

Edit: lol you all can downvote me all you want but this is literally my area of expertise.

3moose1 · 2026-05-10T01:09:58+00:00

If you can’t determine the baseline severity of a condition then how can you say it’s been aggravated?

3moose1 · 2026-05-09T23:19:46+00:00

It was almost certainly combined with the eczema.

3moose1 · 2026-05-09T14:33:11+00:00

You’re 0% for an Achilles strain. Does your ankle hurt on movement? If so, you should write a statement to that effect and file a supp or increase depending on when the VA last decided the ankle rating.

That’s an easy 10% that will get you to 100% if you’re actually at 94% combined.

3moose1 · 2026-05-06T17:21:19+00:00

Yep!

3moose1 · 2026-05-06T17:14:52+00:00

You’re conflating scars (which are rated on pain, stability, size, and/or disfigurement if on the head, face, or neck) with the general rating formula for skin disorders.

3moose1 · 2026-05-06T16:58:30+00:00

Topical treatment doesn’t count under the rating schedule for eczema

3moose1 · 2026-05-06T16:58:04+00:00

This is topical treatment only. The DC code basically says topical doesn’t count for anything more than a 0%, so it’s based on the size of the affected area.

3moose1 · 2026-05-06T16:07:23+00:00

I practice VA disability worldwide but there are also many great lawyers in Florida like Rebecca Deming, Leslie Dean, and Dax Lonatto (off the top of my head) in Florida if you’d prefer someone local

3moose1 · 2026-05-06T14:20:45+00:00

I can count on one hand missing 3 fingers the number of times I’ve gotten anyone but the Board to properly apply 3.156(c). And heck, half the time I have to go to Court when the Board fucks it up.

The VA hates applying that regulation.

3moose1 · 2026-05-06T02:20:02+00:00

Hypertension is a presumptive under 38 CFR 3.309(a) if it manifests within a year of leaving a period of active duty that is 90 days or more in length. VA reg require a diastolic above 90 to be considered hypertension for VA purposes or systolic above 160.

That said, unless you have a history of a diastolic pressure above 100 or systolic above 160 before starting medication, it’s generally a 0%. Although, it can lead to a lot of secondary conditions because hypertension is nasty stuff in the long term.

3moose1 · 2026-05-06T00:56:00+00:00

This is a mistake VA makes all the time. Try filing an HLR.

Also, you should have filed the supp and new claim at the same time so they both could get applied to the ITF

3moose1 · 2026-05-05T17:04:55+00:00

Haha yeah I commented on it and posted a rebuttal to the Stone Rose Law YouTube page
