No Carlie- I have had that for months- and it is again being sent arounf the vets web sites-

I am trying to find the directive or letter, mome etc0 that the VA sent to all VARos recently,which the Texas Veterans Commission referred to ina recent news article-

The reporter and the TVC have failed to answer my email -

but Colonel Dan has sent this request out for me-

there are many vets anxious to know more about this potential proposed new addition to the AO presumptives-

I dont think the TVC made this story up but like everything else with VA-I need to see it to believe it- I cannot file a claim on this until I see the letter-that says the VA has to start accepting HBP AO claims.

That would mean there is something to this-

none of my vet orgs know anything as to the actual directive from VHA or VA Central to the ROs.

I hear from VBM that there are a host of other conditions that may be SC'ed due to AO, including psychiatric conditions. By the time this occurs most of us will be dead which is what they are counting on I think.
