Your duty stations may be worth a claim

Service Exposure Finder

Nobody cross-references a 100-page service record against the full presumptive matrix — so veterans miss money sitting in their own file. Enter where you served and find out.

Helping a veteran you care for? Enter where they served — it works the same.

  • Your record is the key

    Agent Orange, Camp Lejeune, burn pits, radiation — every presumption is keyed to where and when you served. We cross-reference your stations against the full matrix.

  • No nexus needed

    When your service confirms the exposure and you have a listed condition, it's grantable on the exposure alone — the highest-ROI, lowest-effort claim there is.

  • Catches PFAS too

    We flag documented PFAS/AFFF contamination sites (like Castle AFB) — not yet presumptive, but strong support for a direct claim and a TERA entry.

Where and when did you serve?

Add each duty station from your records (DD-214, OMPF, orders). Dates let us confirm the qualifying window — even just the year helps.

Diagnosed conditions (optional)

Add your diagnoses to see which are presumptive — claimable with no nexus — given where you served.

Based on public VA presumptive criteria (38 CFR Part 3, PACT Act) and documented contamination sites. Informational only — never a promise of a grant; the VA confirms exact location, dates, and eligibility. A VA-accredited representative provides free individualized help.

Found a claim?

File it with confidence

Commander builds the claim — presumptive (no nexus) or a direct claim with the exposure and TERA (Toxic Exposure Risk Activity) documented — and assembles every supporting document.
