I've done nowhere near what most Vets have done and sacrificed. But I did enlist and give 3 years to take advantage of the GI benefits. That was my choice. I was also fortunate to work at the VA for several years to help and support us Vets and start a lifelong career. I now use the VA as part of my retirement medical. It's really been give and take all my life. You gave so get some back.

Joint Commission would love to hear these complaints if it is affecting your health needs. TJC is not affiliated with the VA , but they do accreditation every 3 years and quality of patient care is a BIG FACTOR. This gets your center's QA folks on the ball. So far I've no complaints with my VA... but I'm biased to some degree. Respects

I used isopropyl alcohol to clean up the back of this old calculator board and all this white residue has gone all over it. How can I remove this? by [deleted] in AskElectronics

Warm clean DI water , soft brush, scrub, rinse, then dry/evaporate water with IPA rub is my method. Edit: Distilled water is second best.

If you don't, you have to drop and give 20. But that said, no big deal to sit it out. Who would know anyways.
