Clayton Simms
My name is Clayton Simms. I am a Christian, husband to my beautiful wife and father of 4.
I served in the US Marine Corps for 10 years.
2011 - 2015: Infantry
2015 - 2019: Psychological Operations and Information Operations Planner
2019 - 2021: Reserve PSYOP/IO
In 2019 I decided to leave the Marine Corps. I found myself in an extremely disappointing Transition Readiness Seminar (or Transition Assistance Program). The Accredited VSO was clueless and left all of us clueless. That began my journey to learn 38 CFR and M21-1 where I now take that knowledge to help veterans understand their evidence, and how to structure their evidence when submitting for VA disability compensation. After the Marine Corps I became a government contractor and eventually landed a federal civilian position as a GS-13 teaching PSYOP/IO disciplines.
After leaving the federal government in 2025, I submitted my application to become an Accredited Claims Agent. Meanwhile, a Claims Agent contacted me about working under his accredidation (38 CFR 14.630) and under the Borne Accredited Claims banner.
I work A LOT here on YouTube and I am a bi-vocational Youth Pastor.
