  1. !! REMEMBER 1 JAN 2016 All VETERANS FLY YOUR FLAG UPSIDE DOWN FOR

    THE DURESS!!
    I call out to all American Veterans on 1 Jan 2016 For one day

    displaying this is the military way of saying we are under dress

    YOUR FLAG UPSIDE DOWN (for Duress) We are under siege (ANYONE THAT

    SAYS THIS IS WRONG ARE NOT FOR THE VETS BUT ON THE VA'S SIDE AS TO

    KEEP THE STATUS QUO). the VA is covering up and will continue the

    same methods as before. but if
    20 million Flags are in DURESS across our country Our Washington

    Representative will have to act properly or be replaced... Hillary

    is not our friend and neither is Bill
    I'm a disabled vet (I got my Paper work and registered in the VA as

    such) service connected i have been the system since 1986
    As one of my service officer of the VVA told me once, the people

    running the VA are
    not Vets (SOME ARE AND SHAME ON THEM), and they believe it is their

    money.
    The district offices make all decisions on all aspects of the VA

    mainly to
    determine Disability ratings for the VET's in their arena of

    influence. They
    are like any Insurance Company !!! Deny Deny Deny !!!, and hope you
    go away and give up trying. !!DON'T GIVE UP KEEP APPEALING..!! Now

    they
    give out 142 million dollars for bonuses to the employees who take
    advantage of VET's, How many doctors or nurses could they have

    hired.
    !! REMEMBER 1 JAN 2016 FLY YOUR FLAG UPSIDE DOWN FOR THE DURESS!!
    THE VA (THE WHOLE (THE NEW CASTERS ARE LYING WHEN THEY SAY VET'S

    ARE HAPPY
    WITH THE SERVICE(COME TO DETROIT)) If you don't think I'm right,

    don't do
    it, and get what you get as a Single Vet applying for VA benefits(

    I had
    the VVA fight with me for 14 years this is all documented) REMEMBER

    1 JAN
    2016 WE ARE UNDER DURESS From BOLD FACE LIES FROM OUR WASHINGTON

    REPRESENTATIVES
    !! REMEMBER 1 JAN 2016 FLY YOUR FLAG UPSIDE DOWN FOR THE DURESS!!

    One Day
    Lets get something straight I would in no way dishonor our flag,

    but this is the military way of say we are under dress, and FOR One

    Day will show US as Real People who need care Vets help Vets ( Tom

    Cornfield)
