Veterans issues, history and topics of interest.

Mr. John Wells, Executive Director of Military-Veterans Advocacy, Inc. talks to June Stoyer about the upcoming Rally for Blue Water Navy Veterans, in an effort this month to help veterans.
Over 2 million veterans still cannot get the help that they need. There are many Vietnam veterans who are very ill and continue to be denied the help they need in order to live due to lack of money. However, veterans advocates question why the government has money to help other people in need but not veterans. These brave men and women are physically unable to work because they are ill and unable to provide for themselves or their families. There are two bills, HR-969 and S. 681 that would help veterans obtain the medical assistance that they need. Surprisingly, they are having a hard time obtaining support from elected officials. Vietnam Veterans’ advocate, John J. Bury explains why.
