RE VA Benefits

[VERNIG.PETER@FORUM.VA.GOV]

Group,
This is off topic, sorry, but it is in response to the recent message
about losing VA Benefits.  The only truth in the original message is
that the VA is trying to get all veterans registered and would like
veterans to register.  Any veteran receiving service after 1996 will be
registered as part of the process of receiving service. 
 
I would have forwarded the message I received via our Intranet but the
message was "protected" only the sender could copy or forward.  I won't
even comment on the date of the message.  But it was an official message
and coincides what I have heard less authoritatively  arround our facility.
 
This message has not been reviewed by management and if I'm caught the
the secretary will disavow all knowledge of my actions.
