We Care About Our Vets (wink wink)

A New York Times Editorial "Slogging on the Home Front" details that veterans, seven months from the uproar about lax care which initiated promises promises to fix the problem by the Administration are still absurd. Let's see now so we ship these kids off to war. They get wounded. They come back and have to spend...oh half a year on average getting a decision on their disability status. Seems reasonable no?

Oh and remember that during that half year they just might be struggling to get their bodies and lives back together. Not to mention that traumatic brain injury (TBI) and post traumatic stress are turning out to be the "signature disabilities" of the war. While in that state it's good for all the vets and their families to learn how to deal with bureaucracy...ayeee.
