After a Local 10 investigation first uncovered allegations of disservice at the Miami Veterans Hospital, more veterans have come forward with complaints.
New documents obtained by Local 10 also seem to show an increase in the number of animal-related incidents this year compared to last.
"I drove over an IED," said Afghanistan veteran Dane Silva. "And boom, just like that."
Silva said he had multiple injuries to his ribs and now also suffers from post traumatic stress disorder.
"I have problems in my neck, severe migraines," said veteran Alecia Golden.
Golden said she left the service with those injuries after working on weapons, like torpedoes and missiles, in the first Gulf War.
