Veteran Benefit/Info
Sites ►
Alphabetical Listing | 2015
Below are web-sites that
provide information on Veterans benefits and how to file/ask for
them. Accordingly, there are many sites that explain how to
obtain books, military/medical records, information and how to
appeal a denied claim with the VA. Nearly 100% of this
information is free and available for all veterans, the only
catch is: you have to ask for it, because they won't tell you
about a specific benefit unless you ask for it. You need to know
what questions to ask so the right doors open for you -- and
then be ready to have an advocate who is willing to work with
and for you, stay in the process, and press for your rights and
your best interests. Note: Some of these links may be outdated,
so you would have to do a Google search…..
