I love this. Member JM has been pestering the vA to give him an expedite on his claim. He’s homeless but has now moved in with the folks and is staying in the basement more often than the streets.

Them fellers are so helpful. Always looking out for the Vet. Fortunately for JM, he no longer has a mortgage or worries of eviction.

Well, he no longer has any hardships since he’s couch hopping at the folks, so he won’t be need the homeless HUD-VA vouchers that a few lucky folks got. But If he’s near the VT VA, I read somewhere that he might be eligible for a tent and camping supplies from the VA homeless program. I kid you not. (But hurry, the supply is limited.) This is how they plan on easing homelessness in 5 years?
