I am retired from the US Army in 1994.  I have been a disable vet since 1992.   In March of 1992 I reported to my Squad Leader that I was assaulted by my roomate.  He had me wait to see the medical and MPS until Monday two days later.  I waited and them went to the aid station were they found bruises on my body , bumps on my head and anal bleeding. My First Sargent and Commander had me and my assalant stand before them were they told me that me and my assalant would still live together and work out our differences.  I was getting a phsychatric eval in Soul Korea a day later.   I was hospitalized becuase I was upset over the assault.  I was druged and sent back to the states were I was hospitalized at Great Lakes Naval Hospital.  I was rased dosage on Lithium until I stopped talking about the assault.   My releasing doctor ruled that I had PTSD from a possible Sexual Assault in Korea.  The Army said Bi Polar.  I went home to my father's funeral because he committed Suicide.   My  home town veterans officer saw the two conflicting diagnosises and ordered a Congressional Investigation into lude acts of initiations into my platoon.   Senator Herb Kohl got sworn witnesses to the initiations  and my E-6 squad leader before he was read his article 31 rights said that before I went to the hospital I was assaulted by my roomate.  This statement retired me from service but to this day the Wisconsin VA will not and refuse to look at the congressional investagation and the complete US Army medical record.  They say by doing this they are protecting the veteran.  I did not see charges broght on my roomate.  If I was a woman and had this evedence do you think he would be free?   Don't worry I have the congressional investigation and the complete medical record with audio tapes of the hearing in my safety deposit box.  My Question To You Dr Pill Do You Think The Investigation and The US Army Medical Record Should Be In The VA With My VA Medical Record And Could All My Records Be Useful In VA Treating Me For PTSD?
