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 →

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 →

PROGNOSTICATION AND GROUNDHOGS.

Posted on January 2, 2013 by asknod

No, this doesn’t entail Ouija boards or chicken bones. Nary a tea leaf was harmed in the production of this joke. Member Randy, who now lives in a “Marijuana state” like me, sent this in. That doesn’t mean he was … Continue reading →
