VETERAN WEB LINKS UPDATE 02: Following are web-sites
that provide information on Veterans benefits and how to file/ask for them.
Accordingly, there are many sites that explain how to obtain books,
military/medical records, information and how to appeal a denied claim with the
VA. Nearly 100% of this information is without charge and available for all
veterans, the only catch is you have to ask for it. You need to know what
questions to ask so the right doors open for you -- and then be ready to have an
advocate who is willing to work with and for you, stay in the process, and press
for your rights and your best interests:
