	Cash has war flashbacks and ~~posttraumatic~~ stress disorder. In 1999, she appealed to a tribunal claiming unfair dismissal and medical negligence. This claim was dismissed. She then appealed on grounds of sex discrimination, but was dismissed on the grounds that the time limit had expired in 1995. She then applied for a sickness pension in that it was post-traumatic stress rather than her gender change that had made her unsuitable to stay in the Navy. A letter from the Naval Personnel Secretariat said: "Because her post-traumatic stress disorder remained undiagnosed or acknowledged, her gender dysphoria and its apparent effects became the primary reason for dealing with her case administratively." She was awarded £68,000 in back pension payments.		Cash has war flashbacks and post-traumatic stress disorder. In 1999, she appealed to a tribunal claiming unfair dismissal and medical negligence.
