I read this yesterday on some on-line news source. Just depressing. Can't believe this is the best we can do for those who served and fought. I served but never like this guy did. Nothing happened while I was in even if it had I'd have been an "In the Rear Mo-Fo." I got everything I earned and then some when they gave me a low interest VA home loan. But guys like this and many who served in Korea, Nam and Gulf deserve much more then a freaking low interest loan. Certainly shouldn't be left to freeze to death because they can't afford heat.

What's the VA's yearly budget? 100B? At 300M per unit a few less B-1B bombers and we probably could have paid this guys heating bill and then some.

Depressing.
