I was medevaced from Iraq or Afghanistan without my personal belongings. May I file a claim for them?
Yes. Claims for lost, damaged or destroyed personal property may be filed at the Claims Branch, Office of the Center Judge Advocate. Losses incident to service include items destroyed in theater, lost or damaged while in the custody of your unit, or lost or damaged while in transit from the theater to Walter Reed Army Medical Center. However, unit issued property (such as special uniforms or equipment) or other government-owned items may not be claimed. Forms can be picked up at the Claims Office or the Family Assistance Center. Once completed and approved, payments are normally made by direct deposit to your military pay account. However, if you open an account on post with the Pentagon Federal Credit Union, we can deposit the funds in that account and assist you in obtaining an ATM card within 24 hours for easy withdrawal.
