Wisconsin vet
Prescott WI. A vet of the Iraq war returned home, had a brain tumor and then a severe auto wreck. God bless the community for coming to his assistance. Because the government won't. It happened after he returned from Iraq and they won't cover it. Locals are raising money to help with the medical bills. Makes me sick. I don't know what to say. Info (link) might be found on a search of WCCO TV in the Twin Cities of Mpls. and St. Paul , MN. Just saw it on the news a few minutes ago. Am ready to blow!

1. Yet they will vote for the guy who sent them there to be damaged
and cut their benefits within the same 24 hours.

3. I think some of my cousins still live in Prescott,.
I am going to start asking my family about this, and making the point about how the govt. is treating this vet.

Thanks for the post.
