Calling ALL GULF WAR VETS with issues at VA or your claims...... ....Sept
24-25 VA's New Gulf War Veterans Advisory Committee meets in DC and we need
YOU! Face to Face making comments to this committee!
I am doing all I can to get this organized... ..I need you to fill out the
form
<http://gulfwarcounc il.com/gulf_ war_rac_meetings _and_travel. htm>

So we can know how many are going to try to do all they can to come.
I am working on donations to help on hotel or gas expense. I need you all
to sign up on the form if you are interested so we can move ahead with
getting block of rooms.
I got a call and have been offerred a donation to get us started. I will
use that for covering rooms to start with. I will get more support if I can
show them how many want to come.
I need maybe 30 vets! I have contact with 9 now many of those have not
signed up!
This is the first time we are trying to help individuals organize and get
there...Before we kept you all infoed on meetings but this time we need your
hot and tired and frustrated bodies in person!
The meeting in DC is the second meeting and your insight, your story and
your suggestions for improvement are desperately needed to set this
committee on course!
Please sign up if you are wanting to do this, we desperately desperately
need you the individual gulf war veterans to come and that is why I am
trying also to help to raise funds also to help you.
Then I need you to make yourself known to VFW,DAV, Legion posts......to ask
for their help.
I will need you to let me know which post you contact and if they are
willing to help. Since they each have a person sitting on this committee
and it is being covered in their magazines they should offer some
assistance.. ........
With assistance local and at other national levels we hope to help you but
you have to make effort too.

Please pass this email to widest extent possible to gulf war veterans....
service officers---- organizations etc......
I am doing this and Gail offered BB space to help individual gulf war vets
get organized.
This is to help each gulf war veteran and organizations can and or welcomed
and encouraged to pull together too! WE started this as soon as I got back
in June so all would have adequate time to get involved. If you are going
to fly get your tickets early that will save money.
We will try to group people together if you want to drive and share expense.
Also alternatives bus and train should be checked for cheaper ways.

WE will do all we can to help!
