"The VA has used this crap on my husband. Only problem is my husband's records from Vietnam were missing long before that fire. Leads me to believe that my husband's medical records showed things the government does not want to pay for."

Many Marines were sent TDY with no notations in the SRB's. Perhaps your husband was one of them?

The US Govt has looked for ways to get out of treaties and contracts since they beat a Jewish financier out of the money he put into the Revolutionary war. Don't believe me? Ask an Indian.
