Default Reviving the Dead

As someone who just began receiving VA Disability (I was floored) I read this thread carefully. I still have some questions- mainly about the from FAA 8500. When you check yes for anything in block 18, you must make an entry in the comments section. It seems some guys are saying they just simply check yes and move on. I am sure the AME and FAA want something in the comments box. What have you guys been putting there? Docs, what are you looking for? What documents do I need to bring. Do I simply bring my VA Letter with the percentages? I am an Army pilot and fly all the time with out issue. My issues are all small, and I can safely pilot and egress an aircraft no problem. I got my 1st class and checked no as my rating wasn't completed yet. It got completed shortly after and I am now receiving benefits. I am losing sleep though over what is to come next year, as I am getting hired by a regional soon (hopefully). Any credible input would be great. Thanks in advance.
