"I am just more astonished and appalled that the VA has not done better, even after years of records and documentation."

"what more we can and should do right away, not at some distant point in the future, but literally right away."

"I think we need to focus on an accountability measure that puts the blame and the responses to that fact finding and blame exactly where they should be."
