| That's good advice for damaged vets, Paul. They won't look you up, and figure if you don't pursue it, you don't want it. My experience was a little different, because I was medically discharged. The first time they raised my disability, I was amazed. Then, as my arm got worse, and the VA had to cut on it, again and again, the rating kept on climbing. They finally told me that I couldn't work anymore, and granted me 100%. That's how it goes if you have a service-connected disability, and it's documented, but if it's not well documented, you have to pursue it.
