In the last 2 years over 3 million Veterans have applied for some kind medical benefits. I was shocked by the amount of Veterans applying. The VA recently hire 1700 new disability processors to handle the cases.

I was around Agent Orange while in the Air Force during the Vietnam War in South East Asia, and it was my understanding that it took years to prove that Agent Orange was causing many types of illnesses.

Why so many Veterans are disabled these days?

Trifecta?

Some are suffering the effects of time in the military.

Some are just old and getting sick.

Some are gaming the system.

That is simple, everyone is getting older.

Time passes and people get older. They get older faster by being less active. These last years have been bad about limiting activity.

Also the increasing prices of food make some choose cheaper alternatives that might not be as healthy. This also accelerates ageing. The food is also affected by other price increases as well because it leaves less to buy food with.

What we are seeing is an acceleration of ageing by many factors.

I won't deny that some may "game" the system.

But theirs is a uniquely isolated existence. Being a service-connected disabled veteran, I can assure you; I won't be socially acceptable to veterans who screw everyone else to get more than they should... sadly there are "areas" of veteran personnel who enjoy biased treatment over others who sacrificed their very health... but I will leave that alone for now.

The VA has been failing for many decades, they are failing now. But this was to be expected when the VA became an object of "political" theater. Sadly, it will now remain so.

Too many people like to cheer thoughtlessly about veterans, and they are not interested in what veterans (and disable veterans) have to face in the "new normal" social theater.

Veterans will always get the short end of any deal.

If you look at the crap deals that service members get, its no surprise that interest in serving has waned.

You had a generational war with Afghanistan, where sons succeeded their fathers in the campaign. 20 years, trillions, more veterans who served there committed suicide than those that died in the battlefield. It messes folks up.

Personally, I support the cutting of the military budget to the extent that it will serve exclusively as defense.

I imagine that a lot of veterans are like myself people who do not go to the doctor unless they absolutely have to. I have only begun to try and obtain any sort of health benefit at all even though I’ve been told for years I’m eligible. I hadn’t done it because I didn’t need it. But I am getting old enough now I can see that I may have to at some point soon. I imagine that’s where a lot of baby boomers and Gen Xers are at right now.

I hadn’t thought of that but of course you’re right. I imagine the health impacts from all this Covid subterfuge has been very harmful to a lot of veterans. And that is likely now showing up with more people seeking help. Another contributing factor to the spiraling crap shall we call the world today.

One of my jobs is working very closely with disabled vet's. I can attest to the unspoken human suffering unfolding around us and it's absolutely heartbreaking.

The same entities running the DMV and postal services shouldn't be running the VA. These are people and one thing the federal government is incapable of understanding is the nuances of the human condition. Not all vet's have the same needs or expectations, and trying to fix this with the pharmaceutical shotgun method is contributing to the problems in many cases.

22 veterans kill themselves every day in America. We can certainly do better...

It is way more than just veterans coming out as sick MM , During this Rona escapade i had to visit my local hospital for check ups after having 6 heart attacks years ago and the place was deserted with hardly a sole around and only 2 out of the 6 floors occupied .

Now skip forward to after all the Experimental Genetic shots and the place is full to the rafters , My aunt was in getting a leg amputated because of clots my niece was in with Gulliam Barr syndrome and they are run off their feet with no time to make Tik Tok videos
.

It must be my ct imagination that over 20 of my young friends have died from heart attacks /strokes /and cancer that kills in days , most of my family are ill for the 4-5 time with covid but as they were told - you signed the form and gave your permission for them to inject to inject you - no refunds .

I posted this warning on Sept 26th O;looney just caught up www.abovetopsecret.com...

The real figure is 5 % if you take all the Mutts out of the equation - me included



Now kick the ball down the road 10 years and any Caucasians left really will be 1 % ers MM

GULF WAR ILLNESS SYMPTOMS BAFFLED SCIENTISTS. UNTIL NOW.

The origins of Gulf War illness have eluded veterans and medical researchers for decades. But now, a new study seems to have cracked the case on how roughly 250,000 veterans were sickened during the 1991 Persian Gulf War: exposure to the chemical weapon sarin.

While combat lasted 43 days, the harmful health effects on some who served in the conflict have stretched for decades. Known as a cluster of once inexplicable symptoms, Gulf War illness —sometimes called Gulf War syndrome— can include muscle aches, joint pain, dizziness, memory lapses, headaches, fatigue and insomnia.

Unlikely.

According to the latest figures from the CDC, here are the rates of adverse events following vaccination as reported in the Vaccine Adverse Events System:

"Anaphylaxis after COVID-19 vaccination is rare and has occurred at a rate of approximately 5 cases per one million vaccine doses administered. Anaphylaxis, a severe type of allergic reaction, can occur after any kind of vaccination. If it happens, healthcare providers can effectively and immediately treat the reaction."

"Thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS) after J&J/Janssen COVID-19 vaccination is rare and has occurred in approximately 4 cases per one million doses administered. TTS is a rare but serious adverse event that causes blood clots in large blood vessels and low platelets (blood cells that help form clots)."

"Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) in people who have received the J&J/Janssen COVID-19 vaccine is rare. GBS is a rare disorder where the body’s immune system damages nerve cells, causing muscle weakness and sometimes paralysis. GBS has largely been reported in men ages 50 years and older. Based on a recent analysis of data from the Vaccine Safety Datalink, the rate of GBS within the first 21 days following J&J/Janssen COVID-19 vaccination was found to be 21 times higher than after Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna (mRNA COVID-19 vaccines). After the first 42 days, the rate of GBS was 11 times higher following J&J/Janssen COVID-19 vaccination. The analysis found no increased risk of GBS after Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna (mRNA COVID-19 vaccines). CDC and FDA will continue to monitor for and evaluate reports of GBS occurring after COVID-19 vaccination and will share more information as it becomes available."

....

"Reports of death after COVID-19 vaccination are rare. FDA requires healthcare providers to report any death after COVID-19 vaccination to VAERS, even if it’s unclear whether the vaccine was the cause. Reports of adverse events to VAERS following vaccination, including deaths, do not necessarily mean that a vaccine caused a health problem. More than 660 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through December 14, 2022. During this time, VAERS received 18,007 preliminary reports of death (0.0027%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. CDC and FDA clinicians review reports of death to VAERS including death certificates, autopsy, and medical records. Continued monitoring has identified nine deaths causally associated with J&J/Janssen COVID-19 vaccination. ..."

www.cdc.gov...

So the probability of getting a significant adverse event that might lead to death from being vaccinated is less than 10 in a million, or 1 in 100,000.

Meanwhile the case mortality rate for Covid in the US averaged over the last 3 years is about 1%, or 1 in 100.

www.worldometers.info...

Getting Covid is approximately 1000 times more likely to land you in the hospital or kill you than getting vaccinated. The odds are even better if you take one of the mRNA vaccines instead of the J&J vaccine.

These are War time veterans mate , We've been at War for 20 years and now the PTSD and Injuries are all adding up.

Vietnam would have been and should have been just as bad if not 100 times worse but the VA was a Joke back then and Veterans were treated like garbage .

But these are the realities of War mate people come home in pieces mentally and Physically .

How many Vietnam Veterans came home and died in the streets Cold and Homeless with a needle in their arm ? Ten of thousands easy . I've been to so many funerals of Friends in the Army who committed suicide and I'm talking just people who were in my Unit/Company , God only knows the true extent of the issues surrounding veterans.

Personally I knew what I was signing up for I went willingly with an eagerness in my heart , but many others had no clue.

Definitely something to this..my dad would go nowhere near them, and when I told him I was going, I won't forget the look on his face..very odd, he didn't fear much..but there was fear there, kind of like one of those "You go ahead Man." type deals..I haven't had any negative per say experiences with them, but they for sure have their 'protocol'..and its an old setup…everything is plug and play, not much above and beyond going on there, but all in all I think they serve the Vets well.The basics

The VA is far from perfect but they are doing a Much better job than they have in the past , and in truth they have no choice with today's social connectivity the outcry for veterans would be deafening if not for the efforts of the VA.

Back in the 70's and 80's the Vietnam Veterans could be swept under the rug and no one would know the difference but they simply cant do that with today's Veterans .

I can agree that many vets are made sick in some way by their military service. But we should look at the population of the world as a whole. Many people, regardless of military service, around the world are currently not well for a wide variety of reasons. Getting into why would almost certainly necessitate making at least several separate long threads.

Let me clarify a little..It gets no better than the people and volunteers that Ive dealt with at the VA..theyre lifesavers, but I think the system is old and it limits the ceiling of care available.they can only do so much.last time I checked there were like ten million in VA care..thats a ton..But VA is not Walter Reed.People get diagnosed and treated, and an available doctor, its way more than a some people have. a reply to: asabuvsobelow

forced into wars to enrich politicians and NOT
to defend your loved ones...

FORCED to kill or be killed,
killing men ,women, old folks, and CHILDREN,
watching your buddy beside you suddenly EXPLODE,
you join to be accepted by society, and have lifelong buddies,
and watch some die,

how many are females that have breakdowns, compared
to the old military of only men? could be the diffrence

or how about all the pulverized dust from depleted uranium rounds?
those massive iraqi sand storms spread it thousands of miles

all the chemical plants,tanks, oil tanks, bio-research buildings,
municipal waste plants and other nasties that get blown up
and spread everywhere.. sewage plants spreading e-coli..
since the americans like destroying EVERYTHING IN SIGHT
all leaking into the water supply

toxic chemicals from all those rockets and missiles

the multi-combo vaccinations so you can travel around the world,?
foreign foods?

and in the past 30 years, nearly every child gets put on
zoloft for girls, and ritalin for boys

last but not least,...
the governmint/military/ drug companies could just
be EXPERIMENTING on the soldiers,,,
they are EXPENDABLE afterall, they can always get more

Most of the military (all branches) were forced to get the clot shot, until recently. So a lot of those injured aren't actually old. Many of them haven't even stepped foot on foreign soil and got released due to the illnesses that came with the shot.

Their goal was to weaken those capable of fighting for America and over run it with illegals and direct threats. When the strong and trained are weakened and destroyed that leaves less able bodies people to fight homeland invaders.

It's pure setup to sell out America. We devalue our currency that Yen will become lead. No one will take our currency, and we will be forced to strip our lands of wood and more for survival.

It is all planned, that is why 3/4ths our farmland is no longer producing food. We won't need that much food when 80% of the population destroys itself on in land wars from invaders, or dies from these shots, since most of the remaining civilians aren't actually trained to fight wars or use that equipment it leaves us ripe for the picking..

Imagine the US being Ukraine, Ukraine is getting aid from us. But who do you think will aid us? NO-ONE. The biggest difference between us, is we are purposely destroying our own military and defense.

Sad part is, war is an art. Each line is carefully being drawn. When people finally figure out what's going on that painting will be complete. Their goal is to keep you guessing admist lies and confusion.

Surprise attacks are rarely ever direct. If you been paying attention, the elites have been buying up our farmland at insane rates. Not just farmland, but entire city blocks and pricing people out of homes by inflating the value. Which allowed them to claim more land.

Even buildings that remain offer resource, from metal, wood, etc.

Think about everything that has happened, there is a clear cut pattern of what is to come. With the BLM army, Antifa, millions of immigrants entering illegally and unscreened every week.

If you don't see this as a pure invasion.. and hostile takeover by the elites you have another thing coming. Especially with food production at a bare minimum. What do you think is going to happen when Americans can't eat? What do you think is going to happen when these illegals no longer get their sanctuary food?

Total and utter chaos, with zero defense. You see police do anything when they lost their base? Nope, completely trashed by BLM. They even set the presinct on fire.

What we seen and experienced over the past two years is just their way to soon normalize the behavior. Because they want us to destroy ourselves. Those images are engraved in every person's mind, and then the mentality will become "they did it and got away with it, no one stopped them.. I am starving, my kids.." bam chaos.

It is a seed planted in everyone indirectly of course, but it's now there. To show you what to do or die.
