No they should Not feel bad recieving disability comp for non Combat activities. Military Service in Peace and War is a Full Time committment, injuries incurred at work or in Training are just as disabling, just as painful and just as perminent as ones on the Battle field. When we sign on the dotted line we write that check for our lives to defend this country. If we're lucky that check doesn't get cashed. But we still wrote it.

Well, well, well....really when you consider the Politicians that have never ever served a day in the military receiving VA benefits after or during their tenure as a government representative, how can any veteran feel bad about being a recipient of non-combat related injuries? As stated earlier, training during peacetime can and does have its physical toll on us. The problem is and seems to remain is getting the VA to award the disability to veterans of “Peace Time”.....

SGT, I know what you mean and the answer is a loud NO, but some will take this question as a means to again say there is a difference between ‘combat’ vets and ‘regular’ vets. Everyone plays a role in the wheel of the Army, and if that wheel doesn’t roll, NO battle will be won. One team one fight folks....

If you're awarded compensation for being hurt while in the military then no you should not feel bad because that's part of what you signed up for
