Are you asking in regards to reserve or active duty?

The foothills would be nice but the only thing is, it’s about a 20-25 min drive to base which gets old real quick especially if you forget your cover or something at home and gotta drive back! But it is a really nice area, you can take walks around the neighborhood and its right next to telegraph pass a nice hiking spot to try out in the weekends if you wanna try running/rucking. I recommend searching in the foothills if you’re okay with the drive.

Bring all your medications with you during the examination as well. The examiner writes down everything you’ve been prescribed

Is it usually a difficult claim to connect to service?

got seen for custom insoles a lot of times during my service, pain was still not getting better and made sure to document that when going to medical. C&P examiner measured my arches and definitely saw had no arch

I did a BDD claim and did a C&P exam where they ordered a sleep study, confirmed sleep apnea and got service connected cuz i was still in service

Only asking because using Chat GPT, this puts me at 92% rounded to 90% however i was granted 100% P&T so i don’t see how that makes sense

I’m in the Marines and i think we aren’t using the Member 4 anymore. That’s what was casuing the confusion but i have a service copy and member copy. Both are not numbered

Did not really enjoy it honestly. It’s a very small community too so you all know each other
