The below information has been floating around the email circuit for awhile now so I am posting it to hopefully assist any Veteran or family member using our website. Be advised that the email original listings were more extensive. However, when I attempted to utilize the web addresses provided a good number of the listings "web pages could not be found or were no longer valid". Those listings did not find there way onto our website. Your friendly Web Site Manager.
Below are websites that provide information on Veterans Benefits and how to file/ask for them. Accordingly, there are many sites that explain how to obtain books, military/medical records, information and how to appeal a denied claim with the VA. Please pass this information on to every Veteran you know. Nearly 100% of this information is free and available for all Veterans, the only catch is, you have to ask for it, because they (U.S government) won't tell you about a specific benefit unless you ask for it. You need to know what questions to ask so the right doors open for you and then be ready to have an advocate who is willing to work with and for you, stay in the process, and press for your rights and your best interests.
