    Yep ,

    Lol I am only laughing as it is all you can do the original building structural repair was in on the last base I was assigned to was torn down in 1993 ish . EPA did a soil test mind you the building has been there since 1935 ish the amount of heavy metal cadmium in the soil is supposed to be 100 ppm or less their tests showed it to be 1500 ppm all around the building. In the building wood frame etc. They built us a new building , tore the olde one down under tents took 6 foot of soil out all around the bldg. and put sterile soil in and no bldg. was allowed to be built there for 7 years. LOL what ever they did to the dirt they put in not even weeds would grow there lol.

    I'm good. My doc is helping me bolster the cases for my numbers. One of the extra benefits of being retired and having a military doc. My provider is on MCAS Yuma.

    It's truly amazing how so many media outlets have such different numbers. I quit watching the news when I was in Iraq after watching their bullshit stories and being there knowing what's really happening....just a crock....

    Can't believe I just read or at least skimmed a book trying to keep up LOL. The agent orange and VA thing is not a laughing matter. One of the guys that used to come to SD pheasant hunting spent 3 trips to Nam and passed away of cancer from agent orange. That and some of the chemicals hit fast and hard years after the fact. One of the guys that comes here is a retired AF tanker driver and now works in the SD VA office. He helped Kevin get in the VA system before he passed away and helped his widow. Read me the riot act when I told him I wasn't in. Thought I made too much money to be eligible and Navy lost my base line audiograms when I retired. He set me straight, and by being in the Gulf am eligible anyhow. DO IT! Hearing aids are $4k but basically free through the VA, just saying.

    Last night it was just the Admiral, Captain and I and after smoking 14 pounds of Boston Butt and a few drinks the talk turned to when they were in the Pentagon during Desert Storm. Talk about feeling left out and seeing a totally different side of things... The Cdr. came back tonight after getting a MRI and brought his wife with him to stay in their camper. And she is a retired Cdr. too. I feel a little left out, but privileged also and have no regrets.

    No No it is I love you no shit buy you air conditioned Honda in the morning.

    Have to love the saftey movie The man from LOX

    Yes several times pulled into Busan. Texas Street...

    This in fact the phone number I was giving is for the head of the VFW (IIRC) in Mn. and guess he has a lot of pull in the VA system in Mn. But I can always fall back on Bill too. I really need to do this and am not the only one.

    I went to the VA for this same thing and was told I make too much money. I asked how much is to much and was told you could not make over 15k it be eligible for any VA benefits. got a rejection letter and all.

    Go back who ever told you that is mistaken, though it does depend on what you were asking for but basic enrollment and C&P etc The 15 k cap sounds more like you were asking for Permanent Individual Unemployment yes there is a cap if you are listed as that. But it is a limit on how much you can make if you are awarded that.


    Income Verification
    VA is required by law to verify Veterans’ self-reported household income (including spouse/partner and dependents, if any) with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and Social Security Administration (SSA).

    The Income Verification (IV) process is used to confirm the accuracy of Veterans eligibility for VA health care, copay status and enrollment priority group assignment. Because of the timeframe for taxpayers to report income to the IRS, the IV process typically begins in July of the following year of reported income. For example, income for the year 2015 is available from IRS/SSA in July of 2016.
