Roll: That goes for the civilian job, right? What about the SELRES job?

Not yet...I doubt I'll survive the next round though(or the one after that). Oh well, another Boeing type for the ticket. Just hope it becomes commutable.

I think you are asking about a reserve job. The former head of the Veterans Administration gave me the info that I gave you. He said that information could not be released to anyone. I`m assuming he is good for his word, he`s a former US Senator, however he is a Democrat.

I'm glad disability information is a sealed record but does anyone know why exactly? It seems to me any other money coming to you from the government is pretty much public knowledge. I don't exactly understand why VA benefits would be illegal to release. But I certainly don't disagree with the policy. I was just curious.

Sounds like a good story, sanitized version to share?

Also curious about reason, is it health records privacy or something else at play?

I got mashed up pretty good in a bail out long time ago. Got on with a major, and a few years later went to the VA for two days of tests. Was awarded 50% disability..It`s tax free, BTW. 50% and above means free perscription drugs from the VA. I have no idea why the health records are private. Go for it if you can.
