Here’s a relatively clean jetgun decision with a side of shared razors. It’s not the first time the VVA has done a bang up job on this. I see the Vet was smart enough to get a hall pass from his doctor but VA still wasn’t buying. They sent out for the “independent” VHA version and it came back in his favor. Now for the next battle. Actually getting a rating commensurate with the degree of disability will consume Johnny Newark’s waking hours for the next several years. It’s wins like this that demonstrate we may have to resort to veterinary science to prove the inherent unsanitariness of the guns. Why not? A virus is a virus regardless of who it infects.
But wait. Right directly after it is another from the ACORN capital via the VFW. Thislooks like the Vet was in charge more so than any VSO.

Veterans Claims Help 
Can anything good come out of Newark NJ? My hometown and I do not claim it while sober. I like this: “hepatitis C is causally or etiologically related to service”. AND a damn good etiology to boot. The tuberculous really sucks but our boy prevailed. NOD is always right about in depth etiology from a MD. I hope Dr Cecil will write a good etiology when BVA shred my CUE and C&P report. Nothing good comes from jersey except FDA approved biological waste and wise guys….
There’s a lot to be happy about in these decisions. In the Chicago one, the judge even provides the research citations. NOD, keep ’em coming. They provide hope and resources that will help veterans. In seeking nexus letters, they can be provided to doctors to show them that their peers are on board with jet guns and hep c.
Also, I like to read sane decisions that include the words “Conclusion of Law–Hepatitis C was incurred in active service.”
