Combat to Compensation Book

by August Jean

               A VIETNAM VETERAN'S BATTLE FOR COMPENSATION

Good morning, yesterday I responded to a message that I had received about a new book written called Combat to Compensation, I told the group I was going to purchase it and read it. Well yesterday I found it in my local book  store. By the way some one in the group suggested that I look at the website www.combattocompensation.com  and that the author was a new member to this group.. I did and this is most unbelievable. However I read the entire book last night, once I started it was very hard to put down and I found if I just read and didn't check each document there was only around 100 pages to read, they are easy to read and I just kept learning new things. She has an amazing story about how the VA "passed" this poor man around and yet she could say at the end of the book she did not blame the VA and they now take good care of her. She just wants the disabled veterans to get what is due them, and has copies of documents to help them. She is truly a tiger fighting as  she did for him. It is a story of comedy, history, romance, yes this disabled veteran was a very ram-antic man and includes the story of  fighting when the going got rough she just kept on going. Someday I hope to shake her hand. I think every American and especially veterans and their families should read this book, It cost only $20.00 and is well worth a lot more.. Believe me I wish she had written this book before my dad passed away. I know it would have helped him.
