USA Military Vets PTSD Manual

[Kanadiana]

This looks a great site to learn about the actual process (what you need to know and do) going
through the process of applying for benefits/disability
through American VA.

Wow! What an excellent find, Kanadiana... I only had time for a quick overview of the site this morning but it looks like a wealth of information about PTSD in general and specific relevant information for veterans in particular.

I've bookmarked it to have a more thorough look when I get time -- I'll add this to the PsychLinks main website as soon as I get time to update the PTSD page there as well.

Thanks!

Cool! The net is an incredible creature, huh?

By the way ... all the ptsd smarts that benefits us all?
Thank Vets ... especially Vietnam Vets.
They fought long and hard to get this far and
suffered and suffer ... I love progress!

You're welcome D.

And forums are amazing for digging up and sharing information...

Yes... and WW2 vets (there are still many of them alive), and Korean War vets, and Gulf War vets, and all those wars that followed the collapse of the USSR, and those returning from Afghanistan and Iraq...

I just came across this in my Google alerts (backlinks) -- a site for US Veterans, primarily but not exclusivelt Gulf War veterans, including information and advice on how to apply for and obtain VA benefits for US veterands.

See American Gulfwar Veterans Association
