Roger that. I live in Louisiana and our Parish VSO did a great job putting in my claim for Tinnitus and hearing loss. I got rated for it and get a small check and some fancy hearing aids too.

Again thanks for the help.

Remember that the VA deals with a lot of rats that are trying to get fraudulent disability claims. Things go slow for that reason. Try and keep that in mind when you get aggravated.
