I have never attempted to use the VA as I have never felt that my relatively short service and lack of any dangerous assignments means I should leave it for those who really need it.  So far, I have not.  There are people that I feel are more deserving and I don't need to add to their wait for care.

My discharge was honorable so it's not like I can't use it should I ever need to.

You deserve it as much as any other veteran. I get where you're coming from, and I use it minimally for exactly that reason -- I see our folks in the Temple hospital and my heart breaks, I don't want to waste resources better spent elsewhere -- but you earned it too.



ETA: Let's face it, @The Grand Nudger would cost more than the two of us combined in his therapy.
