With all those cuts mandated by some in Washington I hope we are not going to return to that type of service again.
 
The V.A. does not take care of us Vietnam Vets. very well. I have been suffering from the effects of Agent Orange since 1968 and after multiple applications and claims to the V.A. they have done nothing for me. I served in both the "Blue and Brown" water US Navy in Vietnam from 1966 to 1967 and when I asked for treatment they said "You do not meet the Criteria" for either benefits, treatment or even evaluation. The only ones that I now depend upon are my fellow vets in the V.F.W. and the American Legion. Captain Bob Rainey FDNY Engine 26 retired
