This looks like a fairly standard explanation of the need to make your wishes known and how to make sure what you want to happen, happens.

I don’t see “pressure to pull the plug” in this. There are many different opinions about what people want done when they can’t speak for themselves, and I’ve seen what happens when people don’t write it down. I’ve seen terrible arguments between family members and unnecessary guilt. Informing people of how to make sure their wishes are followed is standard in hospitals and medical care. Why shouldn’t veterans be offered such information in the course of their health care? This isn’t new - the booklet was written President Bush.
