The Department of Veteran Affairs has failed so many women and men who have lost life and limb for their country. These soldiers have fought for the right to even have a place called the VA, and yet the bureaucratic nightmare that is government run medicine hurts those who have sacrificed their all.
A new report shows that men and women who have been less-than-honorably discharged are ruled ineligible for Veteran benefits. Former members of the military have been refused benefits at an alarmingly high rate since the inception of the system at the end of World War II. With more than 125,000 veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan, that have what are referred to as “bad paper” discharges, these soldiers are precluded from gaining access to care, said the report by the Swords to Plowshares advocacy group.

Got to be corrected

Money for everyone else?
Trump
I’m 93 and was just denied! I fired 20mm cannons at Stuka dive bombers and my hearing was lost. I cannot get no benefits!
What for more bonus for them traitors to the vets
That’s right r Veterans come first.
I have written to the V.A., Senator Claire McCaskill and Vice President Joe Biden to get insulin that they have available and I am a 100% disabled diabetic veteran. A moth later, no insulin. Why? By the way that is not the only med’s I am being denied, stay tuned. Anybody got any ideas how to get the V.A to provide me the Insulin?
Go figure!
This is abominable. DONALD TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
