I had to fight the V A and there system starting in 1994 As I progressed I picked up & learn what steps are needed to apply for Vietnam vets whom have been diagnosed with Agent Orange. It is best that you have a service officer help with the filing of your application they talk of using the proper lanuage. It is tough but if you persist you should be able to get V A benefits. I have extensive nerve damage, I have had about 12 to 14 laser surgeries, and all my meds are provided to me at no charge as I have been rated 100% disabled. I am have weight restrictions placed on me that I can't lift anything over 1 pound. Free glasses, if your a diabetic one free pair of shoes each year. The only thing that they do not provide is false teeth or dental care. It was in 2004 that I finally was able to get the VA benefits. I like a good fight and I try to understand everything before I go into battle. So far there has been about 10 vets that I have been able to steer in the right direction. I tried to get Federal Grant for my teeth since I am veteran I do not qualify. There are other options to persue
