Go. To. Medical.
Hey guys, it's that annoying devil doc. This is just your friendly reminder to go to medical and address your aches and pains. These can add up over time, and will vastly support any VA claims that you may have. I highly encourage all of my devil dogs (and devil dolphins) to go get yourself checked out, make sure that you're up to snuff.
I'm more than happy to assist and any concerns that you might have with engaging with your chain of command, or if you feel that you are being pressured to not go to medical. Documentation is important, and making sure that that documentation is in your record is equally important!
Why do I do this? Because I had a good mentor, and I had six-figure knee surgery completely covered by the VA. If you served, you deserve medical treatment for what you got during service. Anyways, September fiddles and such!
