How about that it just wouldn't surprise me. The VA is crappy now, can you imagine how much crappier it was WAY back 50 years ago?? This is just a very sad, disgusting situation!! COL Mikel J. Burroughs

This is data very suspect - there's no correlation that not processing the records contributed to any of these deaths - which is what they are implying and I think that is terrible journalism. How many of these are duplicates or "mistakes"? Yes, I'm confident that there are some that are legit - and we all know there is a backlog - but to imply that 307K died because they didn't get their VA forms processed is just not right.
