BVA–JETGUN WIN IN ST. LOUIS

Posted on October 23, 2015 by asknod

Here’s one of those classic examples of Johnny Vet subtly driving his own claimboat with the DAV as his titular head honcho. I’m sure they think they drove a hard bargain but it mostly reflects the fact that Regional Offices … Continue reading →

Posted on October 21, 2015 by asknod

Just got this in from a salty dog in response to my erroneous remark about the Navy being possession of Huey Gunships in the Vietnam War. I apologize. To be truthful, I was being facetious because I never so much caught a … Continue reading →

VA emails not true for Vermonters: “When you’re in, you’re in”

Posted on October 20, 2015 by Laura

The return to our home in Vermont, from MN, hasn’t been too easy or too hard–we are managing and making progress. However, attempting to transfer care from the Minneapolis VA to White River Junction/Burlington Clinic continues to be a miserable … Continue reading →

Posted on October 17, 2015 by asknod

It is with great sadness I read of Brig. General Allison Hickey’s decision to pull the yellow and white ejection handle over her head and punch out yesterday. We cannot say we didn’t see it coming and I, for one, commiserate … Continue reading →

DIAGNOSTIC CODES IN RATINGS GRANTS

Posted on October 16, 2015 by asknod

I frequently see claimants on Hadit.com’s forum mention they cannot decipher their grants and that the decision doesn’t specifically identify the rating by Diagnostic Code or DC. Duh. VA really would prefer to keep you in the dark on that … Continue reading →

Posted on October 13, 2015 by asknod

As in years past when I first began this blog as a teaching tool, I still love to use BVA decisions to illustrate what can go wrong. They comprise approximately 70% of all published so there’s no dearth of them to pick … Continue reading →
