Their are many people who risk their lives fighting for this country everyday, but there are just that many who have already fought for our country in previous wars. Some of these veterans who fought for our country are not getting the benefits that they deserve and I think thats not right. They have commission members saying "They’re faced with a backlog of more than 107,000 cases with 500 new claims filed every day and that’s just in Texas." Its just ridiculous, their is no reason that the people who have risked their lives for this country do not get the benefits that they deserve. Its one thing if they told you before you enlisted that you were not going to receive any benefits, but its a whole different thing if they told you that you were gonna get benefits and you do not receive them. I think this article is worth reading because I know that a lot of people will have someone who served for this country in your family and I for one do not want my Grandpa not getting the benefits he deserves.
