Quite probably there are more than just a few of us who know way too little about our Veterans Benefits and how to get those that apply to us. Well Chuck Norton just gave us all a link to some help. Here is what Chuch has to say:

Just for you info and for our fellow ammochiefs, I speak at Robins AFB each month on how to “properly prepare” a claim before submitting it to the VA. I have been doing this for 5 years now. I also am the service officer for my local VFW and my local American Legion Posts. I am willing to assist every vet out there who is honorably discharged, has a medical condition which can be directly associated with their ACTIVE DUTY military service. I work with a lot of fellow Vietnam Vets as I too am 100% service-connected due to my service in Vietnam.
Any vet can contact me at this email address for absolutely FREE assistance. I communicate with as many as 25 fellow vets on any given day and walk them thru the process. I never have to meet them or actually speak to them. I do it all on the computer and I give each vet personal assistance from me. I stick with them thru the claims process, thru the C&P exam, any followup paperwork and wait with them for the results back from the VA.
I am three times retired..never need to be paid for anything I do for the remainder of my life, and simply want to give back to my fellow veterans..
By all means feel free to spread the word that I am willing to assist. It would be helpful if everyone put something like “VA assistance” in the subject block so it does not go into the junk mail file. I will need info such as…what are you claiming to be a service-connected disabling condition. If you currently have a VA disability rating are wanting to increase the rating, I need details. If you are a Vietnam or Gulf war vet, I need that info as well. There are several presumed diseases that are automatically awarded VA compensation.
I have lots of info already stored on my computer and can easily send it to anyone who would like it. I put it in my own words so it is easy to understand. I will send you some of the info so you can see what I am talking about…
