HadIt.com Elder jbasser Posted January 1, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 1, 2010 It is a great thing when we can educate ourselves with the proper guidance. Thanks James. J A Veteran is a person who served this country. Treat them with respect. A Disabled Veteran is a person who served this country and bears the scars of that service regardless of when or where they served. Treat them with the upmost respect. I do. Rejection is not a sign of failure. Failure is not an option, Medical opinions and evidence wins claims. Trust in others is a virtue but you take the T out of Trust and you are left with Rust so be wise about who you are dealing with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder JamesBreckenridge Posted January 1, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 1, 2010 I, for one, appreciate your input! It's good to know how the VA thinks. I hope we don't chase you away. pr Just remember, I can only answer questions in my personal capacity, and using my familiarity with the process. Please don't get the impression that I speak for the VA because I certainly don't. But I will say that the people I work with are almost all vets themselves, and we're all trying as best we can to do the right thing. The last thing I want is for some middle manager somewhere between my supervisor and the President to get the idea that I'm acting like the self appointed voice of the VA, and that I am running the risk of confusing/misinforming the vets in the process, and that such a thing Will Not Be Tolerated, and the next thing you know I lose my job... and I love my job, it's the most fulfilling thing I have ever done. So let me be clear, I'm only speaking for myself, and can only share my experience and perspective on things. It's odd that VHA (the hospital side of things) has a Twitter and Facebook and YouTube presence... but VBA (Veterans Benefits, my side of the fence) does not. Maybe they will someday. */ The comments and opinions expressed above are solely those of the commenter in their personal capacity and do not in any way represent the Department of Veterans Affairs. */ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator broncovet Posted January 1, 2010 Moderator Share Posted January 1, 2010 Yes, thank you James Breckenridge. The last thing we want you to do is to loose your job. Instead, we want you to train other VA employees to respect Veterans like you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted January 1, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted January 1, 2010 Thanks sometimes the best answer is no answer. All that you are trying to do is help Veterans learn how the VA works at least that is my take. Veterans deserve real choice for their health care.

All that you are trying to do is help Veterans learn how the VA works at least that is my take. And, I'd like to also thank you, James. "It is cold and we have no blankets. The little children are freezing to death. My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have no blankets, no food; no one knows where they are-perhaps freezing to death. I want to have time to look for my children and see how many of them I can find. Maybe I shall find them among the dead. Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired; my heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever." Chief Joseph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
