BVA–BLADDER CANCER AS DUE TO AO OR DIESEL

Posted on December 16, 2012 by asknod

I was sent this via several attorneys as though it was the Holy Grail. I disagree. This is nothing more than the BVA caving in when the VARO failed to mount a defense. The RO failed to even address the … Continue reading →

Posted on December 15, 2012 by asknod

In the ages old game of Not It!, the last person tagged is “it” until he/she can tag someone anew and shout the same. Take that to an adult level and you have government. South Dakota Squidley writes me with … Continue reading →

Posted on December 12, 2012 by asknod

Well, here we go again. The Senate is now getting in the act and telling vA that they are running out of patience and expect some results as the Texas Veterans Commission (TVA) suggests.  This is becoming comical. Congress shouts and vA … Continue reading →
