At the end of a long interview, VA officials perk up most when the subject turns to VLER — their new “virtual lifetime electronic records” initiative to track each future veteran’s health charts from enlistment to grave. Included would be data from the military as to what toxic threats a soldier might be exposed to. “We will be able to know what levels of exposure there were to chemicals,” said Cassano.

And did Agent Orange influence this?

“Oh, certainly it has,” she said.
I worked in a med records room for 13 years. While I do not agree with the
goverment putting EVERYONES records on the internet, I do not see why this was not done earlier for the vets. IT is the least we can do for them.

P.S.

I saw that GWB was playing golf this morning.

While Earl tears up the East Coast he is out and about, playing games.

You would have thought he learned from Katrina.
