Jim Strickland Va Watchdog

[Berta]

My Special Guest for Wednesday Night, October 15 th, 2008 at SVR , 6:30 EDT, is the very well known veteran’s advocate Jim Strickland. Jim joined Larry Scott two years ago at VA Watchdog, at

http://www.vawatchdog.org/ and this site is certainly one of the most popular veteran’s web sites as it contains, daily, the Nitty Gritty- in numerous columns of updated news on many aspects of the VA - with all sorts of information that every veteran should have.

Jim’s recent Special Series-“Understanding The Claims Process”-should be a ‘must read’ by every veteran and surviving spouse of a veteran who has a VA claim in progress or is getting reading to file one -as well as be read by any Military members who can access this site.

Don’t hesitate to access his new site at http://tinyurl.com/5wxapm for a Wealth of Excellent claims information! This link should be a Tool Bar Icon and Favorite Place MUST READ for all veterans and advocates dealing with the VA.

Jim is a Vietnam Era Veteran who served in the US Army, 1967-1970,MOS 91D20 (Operating Room/Surgery Specialist) and was stationed in 98th General Hospital in Neubrucke/Nahe, Germany.

Utilizing the special skills he acquired in the service, Jim’s civilian career involved cardiaovascular surgery technician, cardiac cath lab tech, manager,director,VP and heart health business consultant until he retired in 2003 due to service connected disabilities.

Also Jim, as a Harley owner, rides with the Patriot Guard Riders, as they escort military funerals and fulfill their superb and poignant mission statement at http://www.patriotguard.org/Home/tabid/53/Default.aspx

He is an avid photographer as well and still finds the time to present the electronic veterans community with excellent and very well written columns on important veteran’s issues at VA Watchdog. Check out his Mail bag there too and his archived past columns for exemplary information that we, as VA claimants, or potential claimants, definitely need to have.

Thanks all-

Stardust operates on a shoe string budget to get these shows to veterans and Active military-

Stardust is owned by a civilian who makes personal sacrifices money wise to spread the information that we all need-

We do have some sponsors and I am trying to get another one-a very large business-

to buy air time.

Mike- that was a disgruntled caller who I let rant but then

it got a little out of hand-

it all comes with the turf-

funny thing how another caller who had attacked me on the internet years ago -talked the sweet talk-on the air-

The OIG matter in Detroit is all over the net-

I only had time last night to post th Detroit News reporter info here and then at one other site- and I see many sites picked it up already-

Mike Harris show is in the archives already and mine will be there in a few days and can be heard via PC.

hanks yoou all for listening-Stardust told me the audience we reached was enormous.

They gladly accept donations-tax deductible-
