Combat Related Special Compensation (CRSC) is one of the most misunderstood benefits available to military retirees. Many veterans who may qualify have never heard of the program, while others struggle to understand how the eligibility rules work or why their claims were denied.

I just wanna thank Facebook for the reminder today....as if this last few weeks wasn’t bad enough...

She was my friend....she was loud as hell! But she was my friend. I worked day Shift in Afghanistan, my days would be made of working in the facility guarding detainees or over seeing a compound for about 12 hours. Then I would have my collateral duty, where I processed all the forms for everyone, Army and Navy, to get qualified as a Correction Officer Journeyman, through the Department of Labor.

So after I finish my shifts, where I am threatened, treated like crap, sometimes have crap or spit on me, it’s time to relax right? NOPE! Every day I have to go to the Navy admin office and work on paperwork, and this small town boy from Southern Illinois, gets to spend a few hours a day with this loud mouth girl from Yonkers!

I used to sleep a lot when I was in the Navy. We would work hard, study hard, and play hard, and sleep even harder. Then we’d wake up and do it all over again.
