Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you.

Veterans Affairs committee  There's no question in my mind that a number of firm, not-to-be-changed improvements will make a great difference. You must remember that we didn't get much assistance for a long time, and now getting specific ones.... But you realize that with the ages of our people, after the 6

Veterans Affairs committee  When you say you pay more attention to them, I would agree, but don't turn off the others. There's no question in my mind that some of those who came back, who were badly injured and all the rest of it, didn't have the health or the way to get themselves a great job with a big pe

Veterans Affairs committee  Yes.

Veterans Affairs committee  What they thought of the...?

Veterans Affairs committee  There's no question about it, those who are not in touch with it because of other experiences are overwhelmed by the revisit. There's no question about it at all. It's very easy to push it to one side, but there's one factor.... I wouldn't want to put this in the newspaper, but

I've never seen it, so you're far ahead of me in knowing the detail of it and I won't try to bluff my way. I did quite a bit of reading on the Internet, but there's no question that I don't understand it, because

Veterans Affairs committee  That is a difficult question because every individual is different. For example, thanks to my wife who just retired not too long ago, we have a plan where it's all covered. We even have our burial plots organized for the island. But there are a lot of veterans who were not succes

Veterans Affairs committee  You're talking about the VIP?

Veterans Affairs committee  I'm on the VIP, so I'm familiar with it. For some reason, I still have to submit my receipts. Talking to other veterans—I guess in the transition period—they're still demanding the receipts. The thing I find with that program is.... For example, I have a wood-electric furnace.

Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you very much. There is no question that Korean progress is unbelievable. I can remember going to Korea in 1950-51 and most Koreans lived in little shacks with straw roofs or in mud huts. As a matter of fact, when we helped retake Seoul in about February 1951, it was quit
