Ok, you have heard about the backlog of claims at VA<\/a>.\u00a0 But who is in that clog?\u00a0Vietnam era veterans\u00a0account for the largest share of the 865,000 veterans stuck in the clog.\u00a0 They are\u00a037% of the clog according to VA statistics.

The remainder,43%, are from the 1991 Gulf War,Korea, World War II and times of peace.\u00a0Some\u00a0reasons are\u00a0obvious – aging population and resulting increasing health issues and some reasons are subtle – changing attitudes.\u00a0 This LA Times article discusses the clog and the reasons.<\/p>\n
