Killing Americas Greatest Generation

Its bad enough that the VA neglected veterans of foreign wars but now we have an administration that wants to put the Greatest Generation in the “too old for treatment” category. While WWII vets die at a rate of 1000 per day it is not relative to their access to health care, its natural. There are currently about 2 million survivors of WWII living out thei”r golden” years watching a new administration undermine everything they fought for. One of them is my Dad – you can see an article about him on this blog. He fought and was wounded on Iwo Jima and is to this day a very proud American and a very proud Marine. He said to me the other day- “If Obama gets what he is looking for I will be one of the people that no longer gets the great health care I have been getting all these years. Dad survived being hit by shrapnel on Iwo. He survived infection and paralysis. He survived the horrors of waking up sweating the sands of Iwo Jima in his bed while safe at home in New Haven CT. He survived cancer, and arterial blockage and negligence in the hospital. He is a survivor BUT now he feels like he is being cast aside for an agenda that is nothing more than a dismissal of the Constitution. Wake up America, this has to be squashed. We cannot afford to watch the Greatest Generations shoved under the rush to change bus that is being driven by far too fast by this new administration. We are a republic, we are free, lets act that way. God Bless our Veterans, God Bless America.
