I devote several hours aweek helping vets get there benefits for non service related disabilities. Its a nice way to spend an afternoon and you already know how hard the Dept of Health and Human Services is to deal with if you dont hire a good laywer. I have no legal background, claim non, but do enjoy a good fight with them. They would disclaim a dead horse if it were still warm, I think they hope to fool people into not asking for a reconsideration. I have gotten many decisions changed on a case review basis only and avoided informal and formal conferences. I know that if I did not have a military pension, the only thing that I could get with my wife's income would be DIB and medicare benefits, think of all the taxes I would have paid if I had been working on Wall Street all these years, all wasted, down the tubes. Since I was stationed in states other then my state of record, I got away with only paying Advalorium taxes . later kid Sarasota fred -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!137!10.0!Fred.Kreitzer Internet: Fred.Kreitzer@p0.f10.n137.z1.fidonet.org
