BVA–SHE SHOULD GET 10% FOR § 3.324

Posted on July 19, 2013 by asknod

FROM THE JAMESTOWN RO (THE ORIGINAL FORT FUMBLE) Yes, indeed. Here we have the quintessential “spaghetti” filing. Veronica Vet blames VA for everything and then sees if anything sticks. HBV and hemorrhoids did. At 0% for both, she is unwittingly … Continue reading →

BVA–WHEREVER THE EVIDENCE TAKES US, BUBBA.

Posted on July 18, 2013 by asknod

Used to be a time when you couldn’t do this (develop negative evidence). Oh, the times they are a changin’. Guess we know where this one is heading. Further, with respect to risk factors, the VA examiner must consider … Continue reading →

BETTER WATCH OUT. BETTER NOT POUT. BETTER NOT FILE ‘CAUSE I’M TELLIN’ YOU WHY

Posted on July 18, 2013 by asknod

This was in my Facebook from Chapman AmVETS. Ugly percentages. The comments alone make me sick. Perhaps some of these enlightened people will step forward and sign up for a few years of early morning wake ups and cold chow. Cold … Continue reading →

Posted on July 16, 2013 by asknod

NPRC RESTORATION STORY

Posted on July 14, 2013 by asknod

Member John sends us this tasty treat. Forty years later they are hard at it. I commend them. If I were doing it, I’d concentrate on the newer rather than the older records. I suppose I shouldn’t bitch. They’ll spend … Continue reading →

CAVC– FAUST V. WEST–A FAUSTIAN BARGAIN

Posted on July 14, 2013 by asknod
