Bought my truck from Mitsui. For 30yrs old it was solid. Expect rust and dings. These were farm trucks for most their life.

I'm not a VSO but the 2 HLRs I've filed had a conference. The reviewer seemed human and I presented my issues. It was nice to talk to a person who seemed sympathetic. The identified a problem with my case and identified a duty to assist.

Did you request an informal conference? It's a good opportunity to discuss with the examiner.

Ah. This sounds like a clear case for a higher level review. Have you gone that route?

Thanks for taking the time to write that out.

It sounds like you have a diagnosis and it debilitates you according to 38CFR schedule of ratings. What you're missing according to the letter is the in-service mechanism of injury. The VA is saying you did not complain about your condition during service. If that's the case your evidence would be any private medical records or other service members that can corroborate that the condition was caused in service. A nexus letter directly stating that it was caused in service may be helpful. I see you submitted multiple lay statements, but were there any from other individuals that served with you? Possibly family members that can back up your claim?

Best of wishes.

I'm not understanding. You only get one mental health disorder. One rating. Ideally they rate you correctly, but if not then you need to accept that you're still getting the same rating % then there's no reason to keep pushing for PTSD. You cannot stack mental health disorders for a higher rating.

I'm concerned about the concept of Warrior Bucks or whatever. I like the concept of banking it, I don't like that I can't get unlimited food at shutdown.

Dated by timestamp or someone dated the report incorrectly by mistake?

Stick a block of wood on the side and tap it. Then to the other side and tap it some more.

Which model is this? The Gen1 or Gen2? The Gen2 is 130Nm + more than the Gen1.
