ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — A central Florida veteran who served two tours in Iraq and says he suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, told Channel 9 that he is stuck waiting for help from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
He is one of about 500,000 veterans caught up in a backlog of those waiting for decisions to be made about their benefits.

Northcote served 13 years in the U.S. Marine Corps and did tours of duty in Iraq in 2003 and 2006.
