I was wounded in 71 and discharged early 72, while my wounds were serious at the time I made a 100% recovery. While I could go to the VA I’ve chosen not to. For me it just never felt right. The VA was put in place for Vet’s like your son not for the drunks and addicts that seem to swarm that place now. My brother in-law was the Director at the VA here my ex wife was a nurse so I get my information from some fairly reliable sources. The majority of the patients there now are there for non service related problems. It’s ripe with abuse by patients and by employee’s.
