Your welcome buddy.

Get one of the veteran organizations on your side, they can cut through some of the red tape. I haven't dealt with the VA since the late 80's when I was very active with AmVets.

[JLO]

As I'm sure you know; I'm not a vet, but a partner to one for 15+ years.

I agree - hook up with a service oranization, if you belong to one. If you don't - hook up with a County Service Officer (CSO; found in all counties within all states - I think)

Best, JLO

On another forum a vet in Riverside, CA is having trouble getting treatment for cancer.

I had advised talking to the congressman's constituent services person, and friends have done that.

Another vet on the forum with cancer advised the cancer society and provided contact numbers.

I have sent along your recommendation of the AmVets.

Incidentally, History Channel now covering SAS Bravo Two Zero raid. Talk about bureaucratic snafus--they gave the team the wrong radio frequency and when it came time for helicopter extraction did not even launch.

Some people needing to be hung out of high windows by their socks.

Won't be long now for Saddam and Kofi Annan to be bunk mates in the dustbin of history.

And the world will be a better place.

Amen to that Phildragoo, Amen to that.

I forgot to mention that I am so proud that I catered a party that Vice President Cheney attended (he was not VP at the time).



Jackson Hole and Jackson Lake were both named for trapper David E. Jackson, while the Tetons received their name from French Canadian trappers. During the fur trade days this was a busy place. Once the trappers were gone, however, the Hole was isolated and lonely up into the twentieth century. Indians used it as a summer camping ground, and in the 1860's a lone Englishman named Richard Leigh settled in the Jackson Hole area with his Shoshone wife Jenny. He scraped out a living trapping on the western side of the Tetons, and supplemented his income by working as a guideJackson.......

Oops sorry I posted that to the wrong thread, didn't mean to intrude. : )

[bluecollarman]

To all...

Please help the Marine just featured on fox news who was denied citizenship by the INS but is being allowed to fight in Iraq. He is a Sgt. Pres. Bush could sign an executive order. This should be done before this young man is called into battle.

[bluecollarman]

It was just on... Marine was born in Vietnam, evidently got in some minor trouble as a youngster. Obviously not serious enough to keep him from joining the Marines or attaining the rank of Sgt.

INS SAYS HIS CHARACTER IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO BE A CITIZEN!

How Crazy is that? He loves the Marines and hoped someone would see the news cast and help.

[Ukiapah Heep]

The usual bunch of peacnik losers.
