Notorious Kelly Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Thanks for the tip, John. My feelings can vary quite a bit from day to day. I can't help but feel that if those before us had raised a lot more hell we wouldn't be in the same boat of waiting years for relief. I'm not waiting years.

HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted June 24, 2009 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted June 24, 2009 Kelly I think after WWII many vets did not feel they had a right to ask for serious compensation. Vietnam vets were just denied on such a host of issues that they got a horrible opinion of the VA, and wanted no part of it. Now the newest generation of vets has to deal with 60 years of neglect. Each generation deals with neglect because it was even worse for vets from WWI and earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted June 24, 2009 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted June 24, 2009 Purple: Thanks I edited out the first sentence which I felt could be a trigger. Even when a post disappears it is saved and the Mods and Tbird can review it. The only time it goes poof is when a member asks for it to happen and Tbird pulls the trigger. Tbird is always willing to listen or look at suggestions that Members think will improve Hadit. That is one of the things that makes Hadit special in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notorious Kelly Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Yikes- my goal is to 'do no harm' here. Is there a post with info about 'triggers', because I'm not familiar with that? Thanks! kelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
