Dept. Veterans Affairs - Friend or Foe

The Dept. of Veterans Affairs unofficial motto: "Delay, deny, wait till I die, or can be driven to suicide"

Nearly 20,000 U.S. veterans died waiting for the Dept. of Veterans Affairs to adjudicate their claim in 2012.

Approximately 150,000 to 300,000 veterans were homeless or living in shelters every night of 2012.

A veteran is driven to suicide nearly every hour of everyday 365 days a year! Suicide Data Report, 2012
