MSgt Michael Bischoff Treated the way they are? Did they not get treatment? Is the President planning on standing in the way of possible Purple Hearts? What is being denied of these service men and women? Please elaborate.

Are they going to go back and make this big of an issue for everyone who has ever been rocketed, mortared, or involved in IED attacks that didn’t even know what TBI was, or have the awareness to even realize that the issues they were dealing with were symptoms of such an injury, and therefore were given no medical attention?

The issue was not that anyone hurt during the attack it was "just have headaches" comment as nothing serious.
“I heard that they had headaches, and a couple of other things,” Trump told reporters at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. “But I would say, and I can report, it is not very serious. Not very serious.”

MSgt Michael Bischoff Roger that sir, and when asked if he didn’t consider TBI a serious injury he went on to say, "I don't consider them very serious injuries RELATIVE to other injuries that I've seen."
My issue is that thousands of troops have been subjected to large blasts in this war and did not receive any of this attention. Many weren’t aware that issues following blasts were related to a possible serious issue such as TBI because it wasn’t seen as a serious issue by unit leadership. So my question is, is it only a big deal because Trump said he didn’t consider it as serious as other injuries he’s seen, or are they actually going to take everyone who has experienced concussive blasts and examine them, also, for TBI?
