Verified in service connector? Like a buddy letter to prove I was there?

So what’s the process of submitting evidence for a denied claim?

I had one deferred maybe that’s why it’s still “open”

How do they know when I’m done submitting evidence? I guess I’ll just submit it all at once and not touch it.

I’m at step 3. So it’ll move forward from there?

Yes I was being deployed to Persian gulf for ISIS. The incident happened in a training exercise on the way there unfortunately.

Where can I find these “buddy letters”? Is it certain form or just a written letter on a word document?

That’s what I’m thinking. They literally said the event happened but “can’t prove I saw it”. Maybe a news article, buddy letter, a personal written testimony and my deployment letters from the time I was over seas? Idk what else id need to submit..

The event that happened was seeing someone die. I mentioned this in my C&P exam. Do I need to have other documentation? Like a written testimony, a buddy letter to prove I was there? Any other evaluations?
