It should not matter at all as we are all military the puepose of the military is to train for combat Operations and to fight all enemy foreign or domestic. Whether sitting in a chair or training in the field we train for combat. People need to stop worrying about everyone else and worry about themselves. Much luv.

I'm a retired Army veteran and receiving VA Disability. I definitely do not feel bad about getting disability, and I did not do any combat time. My service record speaks for itself when retiring under honorable conditions. Besides, my disability is for my service connected qualifications and not combat.

Absolutely not. If the VA is willing to award compensation for those types of Injuries, then what's the problem?

If the claim is legitimate, you should file. Some veterans are either told or have the idea that if they file their claim, somebody else's claim might be denied. That is hogwash. Budget for the VA is partially based upon the number of claims that are filed in the previous fiscal year. So, if somebody does not file when they deserve compensation, the VA will get less money.
