Posted on April 16, 2012 by asknod

This was manufactured one year after my birth for the Korean War. There was tons of it left over, apparently. Enough for another war! The government, never one to waste anything, probably paid 6 times what it cost to make … Continue reading →

BVA–NO AO IN THAILAND

Posted on April 13, 2012 by asknod

This is an unfortunate decision for the Vet. He should have done some research on his claim before filing. The fact that he had the MOPH repping him is not going to help. Hell, they should have known better. Cellulitis … Continue reading →

BVA–VIA THE PAUL REVERE RO

Posted on April 11, 2012 by asknod

This is a great decision. It’s not a defining moment in Solomon-like  judicial arbritration but it is refreshing to see a VLJ with an open mind. So many act like sheeple and fail to do their homework on these. When handed … Continue reading →

Anyone even contemplating representing themselves would be a fool not to read every word of this document from the Veterans Law Review. It has everything at your fingertips for arguing down VA’s “nexus” successfully. That VARO examiners/adjudicators regularly subvert the … Continue reading →

Squidly’s HCV SSOC

Posted on April 8, 2012 by asknod

Squid sent this over today. My, what a fine piece of judicial work. Although Squidly was waiting for his nexus letter to arrive, I counseled him to get this on the road to D.C. via a Board hearing. We both … Continue reading →
