It doesn't surprise me one bit. We do what we do for our countries, we do it voluntarily, but when we need help, DVA do shit on us and make our lives extremely difficult to get financial support. Veterans get an option to basically take a lump sum or pension, most opt for the pension, but then DVA just make it near impossible to achieve with PTSD, as they tie one up in so much red tape and paperwork until we just say "f*ckit" and give up trying.
The "source" is an outright liar, and I know that without any details. DVA had nothing to do with his hospitalization, that would be his shrink that did that. DVA think they are doing the right thing by giving us cheaper medication benefits, but say screw you, we no longer want to support you.

Myself, I had a bit of bullshit to get through, but nothing compared to most, as they had nowhere to turn with me, no excuses, as I entered the military fit and healthy, and left the military fit and healthy, apart from the mental illness of PTSD, so they had nothing to fight against. Many get caught up in claiming for every single little bump and knock they get within the military, all of which DVA use against them. DVA have now even gone to the extremes of using previous family history against current veterans, ie. if a parent suffers PTSD or is a veteran, then they are claiming that that parent caused their PTSD, or impacted it, not the operational deployment. I kid you not.

Thanks for posting that Socks.
