============================

Hello Ron could you help with calculating our possible dollar amount for crsc?

Opinion: It is best to post questions in an open forum rather than a profile page. Many do not review the profile pages as they are considered by some as merely social avenues. Posting in an open forum produces a higher number of replies and helps others having similar questions.

Speaking only for myself, I look at this area only a couple of times each year.

Hello Ron...
Can you help?
I finally got my VA disability corrected and now i need to correct my DoD Rating. I was told by my FPEB assigned counsel that I would have a very good case once my VA disability came thru. Can you help or do you know of any lawyers that I can retain? Thanks

Hey Ron. How are you doing? Hope your son is still taking good care of you. All is well in Granbury. Mike

Have a great 4th of July celebration! Take care!
