In a twist, I just recieved my 199 back today and got 50% DOD and 90% VA. In Section V on my 199 it states the following:
1. The disability disposition is not based on disease or injury incurred in the line of duty in combat with an enemy of the United States and as a direct result of armed conflict or caused by an instrumentality of war and incurred in the line of duty during a period of war (5 USC 8332, 3502, and 6303). (This determination is made for all compensable cases but pertains to potential benefits for disability retirees employed under Federal Civil Service.)
3. Didn't result from a combat related injury.
I have documentation stating the injuries happened during connex cleaning in Iraq and it states this in medical records and even on the 199. Will this be enough to qualify for CRSC?
