Subject: USEFULL WEB SITES
 Below are web-sites found 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.
