VA takes action after Marine's 5 years of waiting for help

None of this is new. This report is about a veterans from the new generation but it has been going on for generations. It is harsh but it is real. That is the worst part of all since the veteran community knows how long it has gone on. The Marine veteran is just like the rest of the veterans in that he blames Congress for how the country failed him after his service. He also said he does not regret what he did for us.
As politicians in Washington wring their hands over the Veterans Affairs scandal, VICE News travels to Portland, Oregon, to see what it's all really about. We meet Curtis Shanley, a former Marine Corps machine-gunner, who has spent the past five years wading through red tape to get medical attention for a crippling injury he suffered while serving his country in Iraq.
