My husband applied for CRSC and was denied.
During his PEB they never acknowledge his PTSD being combat related, his lawyer had him sign the findings and said was he would take care of the combat code but did not do this prior to him being medically retired.
After about a year he applied for CRSC and was denied.
He just went back to the VA for an increase and he was granted it he went from 50% to 70% and on his disabilities for his PTSD it now states Combat.
Rated Disabilities
Disability Rating Decision:
post traumatic stress disorder and alcohol use disorder (referred as PTSD) (claimed as PTSD; depression; and anxiety) 70% Service Connected Related To PTSD - Combat
His Denial letter state this:
Should he file for an appeal for his PEB records or should we file for a reconsideration? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
