Thanks very much, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to thank you for coming in today and for the good work you do in assisting veterans.
Could you give me a descriptive overview of the type of qualitative improvement that the veterans who come before you experience in their lives as they're going through their hearings, and then once you've provided them with a decision within the year? Do you have some examples of that, perhaps one of a younger veteran and one of an older veteran?
