BAND OF BROTHERS DAY

Posted on January 7, 2013 by asknod

I received this from member Frank this AM. It only seems fitting when we find out once again that the US Government and their lackeys, the Supreme Court, have decided that 18 Veterans’  suicides a day  is perfectly normal and an … Continue reading →

SUPREMES TO HEAR BYRON CASE?

Posted on January 6, 2013 by asknod

Wouldn’t this be a kick in the butt? Member J.A. Vet sent this tidbit this afternoon about the CAVC’s propensity to get out the Pontius Pilate water and wash their hands of all decisions requiring an actual decision based on the facts … Continue reading →

BVA–SECOND REMAND

Posted on January 5, 2013 by asknod

FROM THE HAVE-A-TAMPA FORT FUMBLE IN FLORIDA Nothing like justice steeped in the teapot of time. This, from Pete Vet’s 2005 denial, is a continuing example of an ongoing crime. Read through it and you will see the fingerprints of … Continue reading →

BVA–HCV WAS NOT DISCOVERED UNTIL 1989

Posted on January 5, 2013 by asknod

Having read every decision on HCV ever published by the BVA, I finally find one that incongruously declares (finally) that a Vet cannot declare he had HCV diagnosed prior to 1991. Keep in mind that I have read about 10,000 … Continue reading →

ASKNOD BOOK ON YOUTUBE

Posted on January 5, 2013 by asknod

Gez, I paid for this almost a year ago and they finally got it right. At first the soldier was saluting with his left arm. It took six months to fix that. Enjoy. Leave comments to help others if you got anything … Continue reading →

BVA–§1151 FOR INTERFERON TREATMENT

Posted on January 4, 2013 by asknod

FROM THE WE DON’T SMOKE POT IN MUSKOGEE VARO (YET). The Vet went into this one with eyes wide shut. Any attack on VA via an §1151 is going to be right up there with CUE. VA will have lawyers … Continue reading →

BVA–CIRRHOSIS DUE TO ACETAMINOPHEN

Posted on January 4, 2013 by asknod

Trust the VA, of all agencies, to come up with the proposition that eating Tylenol is perfectly okay if you have a liver disease. The recipe for success lies no further away than the closest VAMC next door to a University with … Continue reading →

BVA–HBV DUE TO COMBAT BLOOD EXPOSURE

Posted on January 4, 2013 by asknod

I love to read these. VA, in its haste to deny the Vet, sometimes forgets to read it’s own rules and regulations. They publish untold volumes of risk factor questionnaires but when it comes time to apply those assumptions, the VA examiner … Continue reading →

BVA–WHY WE ALWAYS ADVOCATE APPEALING

Posted on January 4, 2013 by asknod

Here’s a classic that looked like it was heading for the willful misconduct waterfalls. Lo and behold, a true example of a “Benefit of the Doubt ” dance ensued and the Vet wins. I will note that this often happens when a … Continue reading →
