Isn't it about time?
The Department of Veterans Affairs announced that all World War II Veterans are now eligible for no-cost VA inpatient and outpatient health care. Isn't this the least we can do for the "Greatest Generation"??

Re: Isn't it about time?
Great idea long time coming tho---How many WWll Vets are still left? Cannot be too many---if you were 17 in 1945 when you entered the service how old would you be now?? Answer= 94 years old --how many 94 year olds are in the present population???Cant be too many don't you think?----just did a quick check according to the US Census Bureau in June 2021 statistics it is age 90-99 =456 people and over age 100 it is 11- WOW didn't even think it would be that nany-FED 387

Sorry E.D. It’s just a little too late in my opinion. Our country needs to do a better job of providing health care for our veterans.

Re: Isn't it about time?
Please take a little time to read the proposal by the Congressional Budget Office. The proposal would gut the VA and a lot of Veteran benefits.
