The soldier stood and faced God, Which must always come to pass. He hoped his shoes were shining, Just as brightly as his brass.

"Step forward now, you soldier, How shall I deal with you? Have you always turned the other cheek? To My Church have you been true?"

The soldier squared his shoulders and said, "No, Lord, I guess I'm not. Because those of us who carry guns, Can't always be a saint.

I've had to work most Sundays, And at times my talk was tough. And sometimes I've been violent, Because the world is awfully rough.

But, I never took a penny, That wasn't mine to keep... Though I worked a lot of overtime, When the bills got just too steep.

And I never passed a cry for help, Though at times I shook with fear. And sometimes, God, forgive me, I've wept unmanly tears.

I know I don't deserve a place, Among the people here. They never wanted me around, Except to calm their fears.


If you've a place for me here, Lord, It needn't be so grand. I never expected or had too much, But if you don't, I'll understand.

There was a silence all around the throne, Where the saints had often trod. As the soldier waited quietly, For the judgment of his God.

"Step forward now, you soldier, You've borne your burdens well. Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets, You've done your time in Hell."

" Help With Veterans' Benefits Claims " 4spinning_star.gif (1197 bytes)


 How to Find Attorney Representation NOVA Referral 1-800-810-8387
The National Organization of Veteran’s Advocates (NOVA), whose members are admitted to practice before the Court of Appeals for Veterans’ Claims (CAVC), offers a free referral service for veterans or survivors. NOVA�������s Advocate Referral Service directs callers to its members who have declared their willingness to represent veterans on a contingency basis so that no veteran will be denied representation because they have limited income. To obtain a referral, call 1-800-810-8387. Veterans should be prepared to FAX a copy of their latest BVA denial to NOVA for review. Further details are posted at NOVA’s website: www.vetadvocates.com.

 New National Toll-Free Agent Orange Helpline Agent Orange Helpline Number 1-800-749-8387
VA has a new national toll-free Agent Orange Helpline telephone information and referral service to assist Vietnam veterans with questions and concerns about Agent Orange exposure and VA benefits. The Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) expanded the Helpline operation at the St. Louis VA Regional Office that has served Gulf War veterans since 1995. The new service for Vietnam veterans follows the Department’s decision to add Type II diabetes to the list of presumptive diseases associated with herbicide (Agent Orange) exposure. The new Helpline, 1-800-749-8387, is part of VBA’s effort to improve its outreach to in-country Vietnam veterans. In partnership with the Veterans Health Administration Environmental Agents Service, VBA has increased the mailing list for the Agent Orange Review newsletter by 375,000 in-country Vietnam veterans. A special issue of the Agent Orange Review has been prepared which summarizes VA benefits and services available to veterans exposed to Agent Orange and the procedures to follow to obtain these benefits. The special issue was mailed to the over 300,000 veterans currently on the VA’s Agent Orange registry and will be sent to additional veterans added to the mailing list through a VA-DoD computer matching project. VBA Compensation and Pension Service has also developed an Agent Orange Web Page at www.vba.va.gov/bln/21/benefits/herbicide.

 bluepin.jpg (1024 bytes) Below are more 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. Please pass this information on to every Veteran you know. Nearly 100% of this information is free and available for all veterans, the only catch is: you have to ask for it, because they won't tell you about a specific benefit unless you 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.

" You Can't Tell who's a Vet Just By Looking - What is a Vet? "

 Some veterans bear visible signs of their service; a missing limb, a jagged scar, a certain look in the eyes. Others may carry the evidence inside them; a pin holding a bone together, a piece of shrapnel -- or perhaps another sort of inner steel; the soul's alloy
forged in the refinery of adversity. Except in parades, however, the men and women who have kept America safe wear no badge or emblem.

 The Vet is the cop on the beat who spent six months in Saudi Arabia sweating two gallons a day making sure the armored personnel carriers didn't run out of fuel.

 The Vet may be the barroom loudmouth, dumber than five wooden planks, whose overgrown frat-boy behavior is outweighed a hundred times in the cosmic scales by four hours of exquisite bravery near the 38th parallel in Korea.

 The Vet is the nurse who fought against futility and went to sleep sobbing every night in Da Nang. The Vet is the former POW who went away
one person and came back another - or didn't come back at all.

 The Vet is the Quantico drill instructor who maybe never experienced combat-- but saved countless lives by turning slouchy, no-account rednecks and gang members into Marines by teaching them to watch and protect each other's backs.

The Vet is the wheelchair riding Legionnaire who pins on his ribbons and medals with a prosthetic hand.

 The Vet is the career quartermaster who watched the ribbons and medals pass him by but made certain every needed bullet found its way to the front line.

 The Vet is one of the three anonymous heroes in the Tomb of the Unknowns, whose presence at the Arlington National Cemetery must forever preserve the memory of all the anonymous heroes whose uncommon valor lies unrecognized with them on the battlefield or in the ocean's
sunless deep.

 The Vet is the old guy bagging groceries at the supermarket -- palsied now and aggravatingly slow -- who helped liberate a Nazi death camp and who wishes all day long that his wife was still alive to hold him when the nightmares come.

 The Vet is an ordinary and yet an extraordinary human being -- a person who offered some of his life's most vital years in the service of his country, and who sacrificed his ambitions so others would not have to sacrifice theirs.

" Bury Me With Soldiers "

 I've played a lot of roles in life; I've met a lot of men. I've done some things I'd like to think I wouldn't do again. And though I'm young, I'm old enough To know some day I'll die, And to think about what lies beyond, Besides whom I would lie.

Perhaps it doesn't matter much; Still if I had my choice, I'd want a grave 'amongst soldiers when At last death quells my voice.

I'm sick of the hypocrisy Of lectures of the wise. I'll take the man, with all the flaws, Who goes, though scared, and dies.

The troops I knew were commonplace They didn't want the war; They fought because their fathers and Their fathers had before.

 They cursed and killed and wept -- God knows They're easy to deride -- But bury me with men like these; They faced the guns and died.

It's funny when you think of it, The way we got along. We'd come from different worlds To live in one no one belongs.

I didn't even like them all; I'm sure they'd all agree. Yet I would give my life for them, I hope some did for me.

So bury me with soldiers, please, Though much maligned they be. Yes, bury me with soldiers, for I miss their company.

We'll not soon see their likes again; We've had our fill of war. But bury me with men like them Till someone else does more.

--Author Unknown

 ...we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain - that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom - and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

--President Abraham Lincoln

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is struggling with some kind of burden.
