imdman71, thank you very much for your service. My hope and prayer is that your tour of duty is uneventful and you arrive home safely. I have a sneaking suspicion that the person that reviewed your application is very likely anti-gun. They could also be over-reacting to the reported numbers of those veterans returning with some degree of PTSD. I would ask an attorney to attend the hearing to advise you of your rights, if nothing else. It burns me that we can train men and women to use guns, then send them half-way across the world, but find excuse after excuse, to refuse to afford them the same protection when they are at home.
