OEF2026
Field Log
Document your service before the details fade. Every siren, bunker order, symptom, and exposure logged today is evidence for your VA claim tomorrow.
Tap the button above, then add it to your home screen. Free. No login. No data leaves your device.
Step 1 of 2
Install it to your home screen
This is a Progressive Web App — it installs directly from your browser, no app store required. Takes 30 seconds. Works offline once installed.
🍎 iPhone / iPad
Always open the app from your home screen icon — not by typing the URL in Safari. The home screen icon uses Safari's storage. Typing the URL in Chrome opens different storage and your logs won't be there.
1
Open this page in Safari
Must be Safari — Chrome on iPhone cannot install PWAs
2
Tap Launch the App above to open app.html
3
Tap the Share button at the bottom of Safari (the square with an arrow pointing up)
4
Scroll down and tap "Add to Home Screen"
5
Tap Add — the OEF2026 Field Log icon appears on your home screen
The HadIt.com logo will be the app icon
🤖 Android
Always open the app from your home screen icon — not by typing the URL in a browser. Your logs live in Chrome's storage. Opening the URL in Samsung Internet or Firefox shows empty logs.
1
Open this page in Chrome
Chrome works best; Samsung Internet also works
2
Tap Launch the App above to open app.html
3
Tap the three-dot menu (⋮) in the top right corner of Chrome
4
Tap "Add to Home screen" or "Install app"
Wording varies by Android version
5
Tap Add or Install — the icon appears on your home screen
Step 2 of 2
What to log and when
The app has five log sections. Use the tab bar at the bottom to navigate between them. Tap the + button to add an entry in whichever section is active. Tap any saved entry to expand it and see the full detail.
🚨 Alerts
Combat Alert Log
Log every siren, bunker order, MOPP/CBRN gear issuance, lockdown, or intercept event. Log it immediately — details fade within hours. This is your primary DC 9411 (PTSD) stressor evidence.

👥 Buddies
Buddy Statement Contacts
Collect contact info for anyone who witnessed an event with you. Under 38 CFR 3.303, buddy statements corroborate your claim when official logs are classified or unavailable. Get contacts before you separate — not after.

🏥 Health
Injury & Symptom Log
Log every symptom, injury, or health impact — even if you returned to duty the same day. RTD status does not waive VA disability entitlement. Document provider names while you remember them.
Date · Symptoms · Severity · Treatment · Provider name · RTD status · Notes
☣️ Exposure
Exposure Log
Log every hazardous or toxic exposure — JP-8 fumes, burn pit smoke, oil fire byproducts, CBRN threats, particulate matter. PACT Act presumptives may apply. Duration and PPE worn are critical fields.

📍 Deploy
Deployment Record
Log each base assignment with dates and the operation name on your orders. Critical: OEF2026 and Operation Spartan Shield are separate designations in the same theater. Document both if both appear on your orders.

Email your logs home — after every event
⚠️ Your phone can be lost. Your email cannot.
This app stores all data locally on your device. If your phone is lost, damaged, stolen, or replaced — your logs are gone. There is no cloud backup. There is no server copy.
Always use the same browser. Safari and Chrome do not share storage. Always launch from your home screen icon — never by typing the URL into a different browser. If you switch browsers, your logs will appear empty.
The fix for data loss is simple: after every significant event, tap ✉ Email Logs in the app header. Your entire log compiles into a formatted field report and opens in your mail app. Send it to a personal email address — not your .mil account — that you can access after separation.
Set up your backup email address in Settings before your first event. Do it now.
🌐
Always use the same browser
Your logs are stored in that browser's local storage. Safari and Chrome do not share data. Pick one browser, install the app from it, and always open it from your home screen icon — not a fresh browser tab.
⚙️
Set up Settings first
Open the app, tap the gear icon, enter your name, rank, unit, and personal backup email. This auto-fills every log entry and email export.
📧
Use a personal email
Use Gmail, Yahoo, iCloud — anything outside .mil that you'll have access to after separation. This is your evidence archive.
📋
Clipboard backup
In Settings, tap "Copy All Logs to Clipboard." Paste into any notes app or document as a secondary backup.
👥
Share the link
Share epicfury.hadit.com/log/ with anyone in your unit. Every service member present during an event should be logging independently.
Why this matters — the regulatory basis
Under 38 CFR 3.304(f), the stressor requirement for a PTSD claim does not require physical injury. A credible fear of death or serious injury during service is sufficient. Every alert event this app helps you document is potential evidence for DC 9411.
Under 38 CFR 3.303, buddy statements from witnesses are accepted as corroborating evidence when official records are unavailable — which they often are when base security logs are classified.
