🚨 STOP believing this LIE about VA disability claims! 🚨

"You can't get service-connected for musculoskeletal disabilities if you were never seen for them in service and your records are silent."

❌ FALSE. Completely FALSE.

This myth has cost veterans MILLIONS in benefits they deserved. And today, Josh Acklet and I are putting an end to it.

Here's the truth they don't tell you:

Veterans win MSK claims with SILENT service records every single day.

✅ No in-service treatment? Not a problem.
✅ Nothing in your service medical records? Still winnable.
✅ Told "there's no proof"? They're WRONG.

🎥 Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/Rj5AzDkECC4

In our latest episode, we break down EXACTLY how to:
• Build a winning MSK claim with zero in-service documentation
• Use buddy statements, lay evidence, and nexus letters the RIGHT way
• Avoid the mistakes that get veterans denied
• Understand what the law ACTUALLY says (not what the VA tells you)

👉 We even walk through a REAL case where a veteran got 100% for MSK disabilities with completely silent service records.

If you've been told "you can't win because there's nothing in your records" - you NEED to watch this.

Happy 250th Birthday to the United States Marine Corps. 🇺🇸🦅🌊

From Tun Tavern to today, Marines have shown the world what grit, discipline, and unapologetic pride look like.

And leave it to the Corps to mark the moment by delivering their birthday message in full dress blues… in the middle of a downpour.
Rain, wind, whatever — Marines show up. That’s who they are.

250 years later, that spirit hasn’t changed.
Marines still bring unstoppable determination, unmatched loyalty, and a sense of humor that gets them through anything.

To every Marine past and present:
Thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and the legacy you carry.
We honor you today and every day.

💬 Tag a Marine who embodies that “show up no matter what” energy.

🤝 Marines & Marine families — how do you celebrate the birthday? Drop a memory or tradition below.

Your knees didn’t just start sounding like Rice Krispies after service.

Military culture teaches strength.
But strength isn't “no injury.”

It's pushing through — and sometimes that means things went undocumented.

The VA doesn’t just need symptoms —
it needs evidence, context, and the story told in the right way.

You served through pain.
You don’t have to navigate the system through it, too.

Hold up — can Veterans really get 200% disability?

Short answer: No.

Real answer: It’s more complicated — and more powerful — than that.

The VA doesn’t stack percentages like math class.
It uses something called combined ratings, and it caps at 100%.

But here’s what MOST Veterans aren't told:
Some Veterans do receive more than the 100% monthly rate through Special Monthly Compensation (SMC) — for severe limitations like:
- Loss of use of limbs or organs
- Needing help with daily activities
- Certain combinations of high ratings
- Serious mobility or independence limitations

So stop thinking “200% disability” —
think 100% + additional compensation when the situation calls for it.

Your service earned clarity, not confusion.
You deserve benefits that reflect your reality.

🇺🇸 The loudest fights happen after the war.

They tell you the battle ends when you come home —
but no one talks about the quiet war that starts after.

🧠 When the world gets still but your mind doesn’t.
😶 When “I’m fine” becomes your armor.
💪🏽 When “keep pushing” is the only gear you know.

But here’s the truth most Veterans learn too late:
What you bury doesn’t disappear — it waits.
And when it breaks the surface, it doesn’t ask permission.
That isn’t weakness.
That’s survival demanding space.

🫱🏽‍🫲🏽 You don’t have to white-knuckle your way through healing.
You don’t have to carry pride and pain in the same hand forever.
You don’t have to do this alone.

🎖️ Asking for support doesn’t mean you failed —
it means you’re finally done fighting by yourself.
If your service left wounds the world can’t see but your life still feels —
we see you. And there’s support for you too.

🎯 If you're service-connected for tinnitus at 10%, you're probably leaving thousands of dollars on the table.

👉 Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/7hcLpFUJ970

That constant ringing in your ears? It's not just tinnitus. It's causing at least 5 other conditions that you can ALSO get service-connected for.

I'm Dr. Marshall Bahr - physician, former Army Ranger, and disabled combat veteran. I have tinnitus. I deal with the secondary conditions. And in my latest video, I break down the TOP 5 conditions related to tinnitus that most veterans never claim:

💤 Sleep Disorders (10-50% rating)
😰 Anxiety Disorders (10-70% rating)
🤕 Headaches & Migraines (10-50% rating)
🦴 TMJ Disorder (10-40% rating)
😔 Depression (10-50% rating)

These aren't random conditions. There's solid medical literature connecting each one to chronic tinnitus. And they're all claimable as SECONDARY service connections.

The difference between claiming just tinnitus vs. claiming tinnitus + secondary conditions?

❌ Tinnitus alone: 10% = $171/month
✅ Tinnitus + secondaries: 70% = $1,716/month

That's potentially $18,540 per year you're missing.

I explain the medical connection for each condition, how to document them, what evidence you need, and exactly how to file secondary claims.

“Is this really legit?”

We hear it every day — and honestly, we respect the question.

✔️ Veteran-led
✔️ Licensed medical professionals
✔️ Flat-fee (no hidden fees, no % of your backpay)
✔️ Evidence-based medical documentation — not guesswork
✔️ Clear, ethical guidance through your claim

When your service is real, your support should be too.
Veterans don’t need hype — they need results + integrity.
This review says it all 👆🏽

Your service earned this level of advocacy.
You don’t have to fight this alone.

You've carried the service. Let us carry the paperwork.
