Per my own experience, you sometimes have to bite them to get the help you need...don't give up, J, don't give up.

Colorado? In relation to your location:
Where is the nearest VA facility?
Military Installation?

Are you familiar with IAVA?
Iraqi/Afghanistan Veterans of America.
They have a website with a boatload of information that can benefit you. There is information available about the closest resources for you to contact--there is also other info that will help you.
I've been a supporter for a few years. This is the organization that helped push through increased GI educational benefits.

PM if you'd like, J.
I've been there, done that

Peace,
Cap
