My Thought For The Day
Anyone who has ever served in the military should be familiar with the phrases – “Hurry-up and wait” and “Everything in triplicate”. This concept is just fine when you don’t have to worry about food on the table and a roof over your head; but add those to the equation and waiting turns into a financial nightmare for many Veterans. Our Veterans should not have to wait years for a decision especially when the evidence is clear. I strongly believe that any Veteran who sustains a disabling injuring during combat should be awarded their service connected rating and payments within days and not years. I would like to see the VA start a “Combat-Injury Quick Decision” (CQD) method that would insure our combat injured Veterans receive their compensation in the timely manner they fought for and deserve.
