Hello everybody,
I have been reading many posts on here for months and thought I literally had everything figured out. I logged into HRC tonight to see if there was any update and I was pleased to see the CRSC application was uploaded.... fast forward a few minutes I realized I got denied. This is basically what it states, "While your claim contained your PEB proceedings, it did not include any supporting documentation to verify combat exposure or any other CRSC qualifying criteria. Therefore our office is unable to award the conditions requested within your application... after a thorough review of your provided documentation and available military records, I was unable to find any substantiating evidence (medical records, DD 214 entries, signed LODs, award or otherwise) linking the cause of your conditions to the qualifications for CRSC entitlement."
So here is my question, I am 100% permanent and total through the VA and 80% permanent through the Army. My DA form 199 literally states ," soldier continues to suffer from symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder from a deployment to Iraq and directly related to an instrumentality of war." Was this not enough? My ERB shows my deployment dates and my awards. Do I literally need to get my 5+ years of seeing the Army psychiatrists and exactly what they say since my first deployment? I have already submitted over 150 pages of all of my peb and meb findings, reviews, and ratings. I do not have a cab or a purple heart, because I was not physically injured and did not return fire. I have literally years of diagnosis because I was trying to fight to stay in and still got Med boarded.
If I do need to submit the actual medical records from the multiple doctors I saw and what they said about my conditions where do I get these because it is going to be a stack as tall as a toddler.
Guess I am just pretty upset because I thought that I had it figured out and once they reviewed everything I sent it would be an easy YES from them and it wasn't. I would truly appreciate any help you can offer!
