Why is I have called for two weeks, twice a day, and the lines are busy and I am only given two options 1) To leave a number for a future call or 2) Call back later. I have scheduled and CONFIRMED FOUR times for a call back....have yet to get one call from the VA. I call back multiple times every day for the last two weeks and I cannot get through nor am I given the option to stay on hold. It has been two months and I have yet to get my BAH or my tuition paid. This is insane!

A Veteran can no longer go to a VA appointment to get any sort of medical help, I've been in the system for far too long and need far too many medical treatments to not only be shuffled around by a "Primary Aligned Care Team" whatever the hell that is, it seems to me that it's a group of incompetent non caring interns, but to also be told, "I don't have time or the interest to look in your file and see what needs to be done, I'm only required to see you every 6 months" by my "primary care Dr. Maybe if the focus was more on Veterans actual medical problems instead of pushing smoking cessation classes or what happened on the latest episode of whatever crap filled reality shows the nurses are invested in. You want to know what's really horrible, the best service I've ever received from the VA was from the 95 year old volunteer at the information desk, and I was only looking for the bathroom. Don't worry, it's not the first time, and I'm not the only one. If you would like to know where any of this happened, contact me, I'll be more than happy to fill you in, with all the names you need, but I highly doubt that anyone from any part of the VA, besides us Veterans, even looks at any of these. So I will continue to yell as loud , hard and to who ever I can to at least gets some of the problems out in the open. The last straw has been placed.

I'm a quite annoyed that my husband (former Marine who served in Iraq for Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2005) has been denied VA benefits "due to high income." Please allow me to quote the second sentence of the denial letter. "In 2003, VA made the difficult decision to stop enrolling new Priority Group 8 (high income) Veterans in order to assure all Veterans are provided timely and quality medical care." Note very clearly that sentence has a very small but significant word "all." After 'all' our service men and women put their lives at stack, part from their families, and suffer on a daily basis from emotions and memories brought on by defending our nation, wouldn't the smallest thing, such as providing them with health care by the government, be granted to them for their offered time to serve our nation? Beings that it's so easy for the government to provide free health care, child care assistance, housing, food, and education to unemployed, completely capable, and healthy people who simply insist on not working to ensure all free hand outs from the government are given to them. I'm far from perturbed to see that this nation does not wish to assist those who defend our Nation's freedom.

Any ideas on how we can help one of our own? http://fox2now.com/2012/09/11/local-korean-war-veteran-faces-eviction/
