As a secondary enclosure,

I would like to add my own personal comments to the one of the many letters you, and many others of the media will be receiving regarding Tom Andrzejczyk.,

In these trying times in our Nation, the finest Nation in the world, It is abominable that a man with such a history of serving our country should be treated in this manner. The fact that Mr. Andrzejczyk put his life on the line many years ago in a far distant land by the calling our of Nation to serve honorably only, to be struck with the malady of CANCER DUE TO THE SPRAYING OF AGENT ORANGE, AND NOW TO BE SHUNNED BY THOSE WHO SHOULD HAVE STOOD BY HIM IN THE FIRST PLACE IS UNACCEPTABLE?

I as a representative of a NY Chapter #38 of the DAV, your western sister state take great pride in being able to call this man my friend, and will support him, and the actions of many, in this quest to correct this injustice, and to further protect the constitutional rights of this fine citizen, and former police officer.

I will be contacting every state leader in the NY DAV, and every one of our elected political leaders in the state from the Governor on down regarding this matter at the statewide convention on June 23rd. through the 26th here in NY, and the voices of the Veterans will be heard loud , and clear?

I expect nothing less from the people, and the state of Massachusetts to fully support this man for he has supported you in his service to his country, and his service to his community.

I will be e-mailing my State leaders to review the practices of the Veterans Administration of the Bosten area to make sure this is only an isolated incident, and that this mistake is corrected in a very timely manner.

Let it be known that Mr. Andrzejczyk has many friends, and relatives that stretch beyond the borders of Massachusetts into New York, and the voting constituents in New York have reaching power into
your state, and should we not see action from the political leaders of Massachusetts, and the Boston Veterans Administration in clearing up this injustice, you will see action in the upcoming elections that reach from our side to yours.

Service Officer.
