You don’t have to have incurred injuries in military combat to qualify for veteran’s disability compensation. Any condition documented in your military medical record can be considered for this benefit. As long as the injury or medical condition was not pre-existing to your active duty military service, it can be submitted for consideration.

Contact the local Veteran’s Administration (VA) or Disabled American Veterans (DAV) to evaluate your military medical record for possible disabilities incurred during your active duty service. You will need to provide them with a complete copy of your medical record and DD form 214’s. Have them help you complete VA Form 21-526.

It makes no sense to “leave money on the table.” Take advantage of every veteran benefit your military service entitles you to…you’ve earned it!
