Should Veterans feel bad about being awarded and receiving VA disability compensation for non-combat related injuries?

Certainly not. Non-Combat injuries happen, people have been killed in training. I was injured in a field training exercise and my condition has worsened as I've grown older. There were no large deployment combat operations while I was active duty, (1982-'85), but that doesn't mean people weren't hurt or killed in service-connected situations. Non-Combat Vets carry enough stigma for not being in combat without denying themselves earned health care for it too!

I have a rating with the Va for my foot. I was forced to be a ground guide for 14 hours in the field and dig foxholes when the ground was concrete and broke my foot days later. I was only in my first year and my squad leader did not believe me. I had to work 2 days till my foot swelled up and my boot had to be cut off. So I have no problem being compensated when I cannot run cross country anymore and can only walk to keep in shape.

We have had this discussion before. Is someone pushing for a different answer? My MOS was not that of a fodder target, it was 11-B the best known of all military men in all services. "Infantry". In Korea my weapon was never fired at others, but it was loaded. My mission was peace my service like any other is not based on Harm but done service. Physical harm is indeed at the top of the pile of Intitalment but by far not all of it. In fact, some mission multiplies have created there own form of dis-ease. There are 2000 known conditions of the brain already. Somewhere along the way, they may discover that the brain is a source but not the source.

No. People get injured all the time in non combat events.

I would say no. Most of the time things don’t usually happen right away or even when you’re in the service. I was on the ship that we decommed being exposed to asbestos and they tell me that I have to look forward to cancer in 30 years because of it. With all the issues I have if the VA didn’t have a weird mathematic way to figure out disability I would probably be about 400%. But I am at 90% for my issues and they won’t increase it to 100 because they state my issues can get better which they will not. Nor is VA giving me service For my service connected disabilities. There’s always a year gap or more before I get my medical service that I need for these issues. I even had to write a clinical appeal because the VA refuses to fill my medicine for VA Choice/Community Care. I was exposed to high radiation so when I first got out in 2006 it wasn’t bad but as the years pass internally my body is getting worse. Some veterans have never seen combat nor have they even been overseas. But if you have issues that are worsened or started by something in the military than it is counted in your medical record. Just like when we went to Bahrain we didn’t have a choice but to get the smallpox and anthrax shot. I believe the anthrax shot is illegal now and our arms would swell up like a grapefruit at the time and we couldn’t even get our arm in our sleeve

I have 35 years service with the VA, in no way is a disability or disease judged on whether or not it was incurred in combat. No one should feel they are not entitled because "it" didn't happen in combat. We signed up to defend our country, our country promised in turn to take care of anything that happened during service. That was the bargain and that is what the VA within the limits of law tries to do.

Considering that mine 4K'd me at 11 years, no, I am not going to feel bad about collecting my monthly check. Nor am I going to feel bad about having completely free health coverage at VA hospitals due to my percentage. Nor should anyone else. We have our bodies when we raised our hands. Consider it back payment on the rental agreement for damages.

Absolutely not. Some pretty severe injuries can result in training, and even in just doing one's job.
the contract is two way street. You put your life on the line, and the Government agrees to care for and/or compensate for any injury or damage resulting from service. Not strictly related to combat.

Why do I keep seeing this I think the question is this stressful it was a marine shot paralyzed in a live fire training this weekend is anybody going to tell me he doesn’t use her care for the rest of his life

No they should not feel bad, they served their country with honor and deserve the same benefits.
