This book is the flame that lights the torch, but the thousand and thousands of veterans who have been denied, denied, and denied must be the one''s who carry the torch and say no more. If the government is willing to sent our best young men/women off to die, then they must be just as willing to demand that the VA stop playing games with those young men/women after they are maimed or injured and apply for compensation. It is un-American to think the U.S. government as powerful and great as it is, will keep letting the VA use trickery in hopes that the claimant die. This is not what all the veterans of all the wars die for. The government becomes offended when someone desecrate the American flag, as well they should be. The flag is a symbol of the pride and honor we have for this country, it is raised when soldier are killed, mane , and injury in war. It was those soldiers that died and were injured that make the flag great in the first place, so the government should become more offended when the VA insults those veterans with the trickery they use in awarding compensation, or should I say not awarding compensation. If this country can give millions and millions of dollars to other counties in the blink of an eye, then they sure as hell can take care of their own. When you ask someone to give their lives, that are all they have to give, how much more honorable can that be? Now the thousands of veterans that have been injured are demanding that the government make the VA be honorable to.
