Does the Government Really Support the Troops?

Many soldiers have had problems receiving benefits from the military and VA. Two soldiers speak out about these problems and their own experiences with military benefits.

    • It's interesting that Fox had to take his story to the media to get it corrected. His story does seem like a perfect metaphor for critics of the government/military/VA to latch on to. He was wounded in service and then asked to pay.

      I would really be interested in knowing more from his side or the people who have experienced problems that weren't quickly corrected like your subjects were. Maybe Fox agrees that these cases are few and far between. Maybe there's another side to the debate to cover here.

      Thanks for continuing to come to Current with your stuff. It's great to see it all.

    • The answer is not entirely, but in time of war our wounded warriors should be top priority. They seemed
      to be very slow in many cases. That is unexceptable too me and millions of Americans.
