Same MSG (Join to see). I have two of the five. The problem with the survey is that Rallypoint limits you to only five choices, and they don't give you the option when creating a survey to have check boxes to select multiple items. I think, combining TBI with PTSD would save a slot, as well as combining Chemical Exposure/Biological Illness. Then you could have "Other" and "Multiple"...

I marked the musculoskeletal injuries/pain, but I probably qualify for 1-2 others as well.... I don't talk too loud on the PTSD thing, as there is still question in my mind about my rights as they pertain to firearms.... some gun grabbers want to have PTSD be a disqualifier.... as long as I am functioning well, I will not seek the diagnosis. Chemical exposure....probably....which one? NOT A CLUE. Desert Shield/Storm, Iraq, Afghanistan....burn pits, actual Chem agents.... who knows.....shoot...they are just recently admitting that there were troops in Iraq that were actually exposed to Mustard.... I knew it back then as we took care of them as they were transiting the medevac system....

Maj Chris Nelson : I'm right there with you about not talking too loudly about the PTSD thing. Right there with you. I too, have two or three things going from combat/injuries.
