Veterans Disability
Gulf War Presumptive Condition
Michael Quatrini represented an individual from Tyrone, Pennsylvania in a VA disability compensation appeal for multiple sclerosis. According to CFR 3.307 and 3.309, Gulf War veterans who served for at least 90 days or more are presumed to have developed multiple sclerosis as a result of their service if they show symptoms within 7 years of their discharge.
