Female Vets Get PTSD Too

With more and more females being exposed to combat operations, the incidence of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) for women in the military is bound to increase. When added to PTSD resulting from things like sexual assault, this is likely something the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) will have to address in its medical system in the future.

LestweforgetPTSDSupport.com is a good resource for Vets and their families as they deal with PTSD and the impact it has. They have a good page on "Women in Combat and PTSD" which I encourage everyone to read.Link
If you know a Veteran who has had their service-connected compensation claim denied, call Florida VA Disability Attorney John Tucker at (866) 282-5260 for a free consultation. Our firm represents veterans and their families across the United States in appeals to the Board of Veterans Appeals and the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims.
