This action was initiated by the VA from my understanding. If those assertions are correct, than I say it is ludicrous to sign a petition that would empower that type of action. And any military member who supports it would become the epitome of a blue Falcon! MSG Tim Gray Fri, 16 Oct 2015 00:56:10 -0400 2015-10-16T00:56:10-04:00 2015-10-15T13:05:21-04:00
