Remember the sqeaky wheel gets the grease! Once you are on civvie street use your congressman or congress woman also, the VA hates it when another bureacrat gets involved. The most serious draw back is that it takes time and when we were in the service you at least had a command structure to help you. i remember when i first started my disability process and thought it would never happen but time is the key and talk to your va reps like disabeled soldiers and the best one the VFW reps they get things rolling and have a network that helps. They usually have people that know or have the know how. The worst Va that i went to was in San Francisco,they treted us vets like we were lower than dirt and the hospital was third world. I was pretty disappointed with the service i recieved and the people that worked there were stuck in reverse. Bad knees and bad back problems were made worse by them. I have been in Az. and the VA hospital is one of the best I have ever been in and the people really try to help.
