Here’s one of those brilliant medical A=C, B=C therefore A≠D. Huh? You can follow the tortured logic of a Hepatitis Australian Antigens Test in 1973 being positive. Simple. He had HBV in service documented by being HAA positive. He claims the doc told him it was HCV. Impossible because it hadn’t been invented yet. His sister remembers him calling her up in 1973 and telling her it was HCV. Ditto. Credibility is now shot. You can hear the toilet flush.

Then, wonder of wonders, the VA examiner decides what he had in service is undoubtedly HAV. One major problem is the PCR testing shows HBV but no HAV. It doesn’t even seem to faze them in the least. Quick! somebody call the DAV in Littlerock and tell them they’ve been hornswoggled. What gives here?  I see he failed to get a nexus but that’s his SO’s fault. Their job is to prepare this to win, not play pocket pool and let it go on for six years  and then to the BVA without one.

The crime is no one can follow the HBV card  in this three-card Monte game. Are SOs really that dense in Little Rock? A crime was committed with a gun and everyone is running around looking for the knife. Idiot’s delight. I don’t blame the VA on this one. They’re dumb and we know that. Hasn’t the DAV learned anything about Caluza in 19 years?

It’s March 21st as I write this. He has two days to get his NOA into the Court. I guess when he finally gets an education on it he can file CUE. Lose the sister, though. She’s no help.

I’m outta here, sis.

You misunderstood me. I said “Hepatitis,see?”
