Of course. Here you can find out if you can get disability compensation or benefits for illnesses including some cancers believed to be caused by contact with radiation during military service.
That's what I was getting at. Am I able to get disability benefits from VA for this?
Do you have an illness that's on our list of illnesses believed to be caused by radiation or that doctors say may be caused by radiation?
No, I don't.
Unfortunately, that means you aren't able to get disability benefits.
Good to Know! Another VA related question. Do all the requirements have to be true?
Yes, did you volunteer for research involving chemical and biological testing between 1942 and 1975?
No, I volunteered in 1978.
If you volunteered after the specified dates, you would not qualify.
Is there a number to call for more information?
