VETERANS' BENEFITS INTERNET SOURCES

Some great information to share with everyone. Below are web-sites found that provide information on Veterans benefits and how to file/ask for them. Accordingly, there are many sites that explain how to obtain books, military/medical records, information and how to appeal a denied claim with the VA. Please pass this information on to every Veteran you know. Nearly 100% of this information is free and available for all veterans, the only catch is: you have to ask for it, because they won't tell you about a specific benefit unless you ask for it. You need to know what questions to ask so the right doors open for you -- and then be ready to have an advocate who is willing to work with and for you, stay in the process, and press for your rights and your best interests.

Comments
It is obvious a lot of time and effort was put into this thread, and that is greatly appreciated.
However today,17 yrs. later (2023) so many of the links provided are no longer valid.
That causes even more headache and confusion when trying to find a source.
With that this thread is being removed as a sticky but will remain in archives.
If anyone has current, valid links feel free to start a new thread and it will be considered to become a announcement.
Thank you.
