This is really good news for a lot of veterans. Pretty much anyone who deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan should be eligible. Basically everything we came in contact with was toxic apparently. Any veterans who deployed, I’d suggest you schedule an Environmental Health Exam. Lots of issues can be connected back to exposure and the doctor in that exam can diagnose conditions and have them added to your file. Makes filing for benefits much easier.

Does burning doodoo with JP8 count? Askining for a friend that got put on doodoo duty for being a belligerent, smartmouthed Marine in his Lance Corporal days.....lol

This is amazing! I’m really happy this has expanded to help more veterans.

I am moving to Bangalore the next weekend, by 17th July. Seems there is a slight increase in covid cases, would it be better to come now or should I ask my manager to come to office after some weeks once everything seems fine?

My last therapist keeps coming up in my mind. I left her when I moved to a new area before COVID dug in and frankly it felt like leaving a girlfriend. She also disclosed in the final session that she was a member of AA and knew several of the people I occasionally discussed from the rooms. Her knowledge of the program certainly built trust with me early on, but it has been two years. I discussed it with my current therapist but she’s still in there. Any advice?
