New guy with concerns about VA
 
Hello all,

This message is just my way of saying ?Hi.? I have watched many your posts across the forums on this site and others for years and think that I would like to participate. I served six years in the army from 84 ? 90. I was stationed at Ft. Riley, KS for 5 years, then to Camp Red Cloud, Korea 8 Mo. Then back to FT. Riley. I was medically discharged for ankle problems less than a month before the lock down for Desert Storm in July of 1990. Since then I have been exposed to the benefit of having served, and the downside of having to continuously fight to receive rights that I have earned. These struggles span the VA, the IRS, the USPS, US Dept of Labor, and the EEOC. I guess you could say I am disgruntled to a degree [USPS humor]. I would like to have an opportunity to share what I have learned and experienced, as well as possibly lending to the content of your discussions. I type real slow, and am at times very angry with certain issues that affect the rights of veterans. If what I say at times sounds dumb ? please be kind when you flame me :) . I look forward to many great discussions.

Matt

Welcome Aboard
 
Hey David, I type fast and sometimes I spell phonetically and misspell words. I've done that Hear / Here thing once or twice myself. We just need to go back edit better.

Matt, this is a fine bunch of Gentlemen. Haven't met a bad one yet.

Welcome home Cpl.
What's taken you so long to speak up on the site / sites? We're glad to have you and it is nice to have another troop here. Thought I was the lowest ranking troop here. Guess I still am since a Cpl. is an NCO and a Sp4 is only make-believe.
Heck man, most of us have had to put up with the BS from the VA. Might as well get used to it. It just goes on & on but that's what their paid for isn't it?
Here you can depend on being with friends.
