see there you go, I`m on line a lot and I didn`t know about this, lol, but I`m talking about a printed page that a vet can have with them with questions to ask their CM. Many are not internet sauvy, I know I barely am. because it seems after reading the horror stories here, many Cm`s volunteer nothing until pressed, I don`t know if they are instructed to or what? Like they are proud of themselves for saving the Gov. money by not revealing too many programs to their client.

After reading this article, the wife is not wrong, not to trivialize veterans situations but someone should create a checklist similar to a grocery list that details what an newly injured vet should be asking their CM about. The easy answer is “ just go to the VAC web site it’s all there” but in actuality the information there is daunting and confusing to most, especially those with PTSD. I think an easy option would be a walk through chart that’s armed forces proof “ if you have this ask for this etc. “ , I mean many vets don’t know about CIA or that tinnitus is separate from hearing loss etc and on and on it goes
