I also developed bad sinus problems and allergies, shin splints from running and my left eye was slightly pushed back from injury sustained while playing soccer for my army post. Do you think i am eligible for any benefits whenever I ets from the Amry.

Wouldn't someone in the Army on a base be better equiped to answer this question? Contact your superiors and ask them where to get this info.

if you complain long enough and go to sick call on regular basis. Do you have double vision? My husband was a 19D and has some health issues too. There was no way that he would have made E-7 so we deceided to he would go 79R and there he is with a permant P2 profile(he cant run or lift heavy)gettin ready to be pinned this year. If you consider staying in think about being a 79R. Its a pretty decent life(we are right outside Orlando)
oh and i really appreciate that you wrote "army post" its churns my stomach when those civilians write base. grrrr we aint Air Force or whatever
hooah
mompooh or whatever, do you even know what you are talking about? geez some civilians are so freaking stupid. You get a purple heart when you get injured in combat (or killed)please keep your yapper shut when you dont know what we are talking about.

Even without injuries you would be eligible for VA benefits after you are discharged from the army. If you are asking more to whether you will receive monetary disability benefits, that would depend on exactly how bad your injuries are. Though you have received many, all of the injuries you mentioned do have varying degrees, and people recover from them at different rates. My advice to you is that as soon as you are discharged, go to your nearest VA hospital, get your medical benefits in order, see one of their physicians for your physical and at that point they will decide at what rate, if any your disability is. From there they will handle everything for you to receive monthly checks. Thank you for serving.

Yes, but you have to talk to your county V.A. rep to sign up for all the veteran's benefits. They will ask you about war related injuries, service related injuries, POW related injuries. You have to claim that whenever you get out and visit the V.A. office. Bring I.D. and your DD214.

I did slightly cave exploring on Friday and forgot a cardinal rule: enable the tall guy bypass first. I made the aquaintance of what the locals call "Bellringer rock". believe me, that's aptly named. The knot on my head hasn't gone down yet. Will someone please answer that telephone?

Definitely should get some benefits, IMHO. Those sound quite serious!
