As you know already, I had a 2-part
round about trip to Washington DC,
first returning home just a day
before the Memorial Day holiday,
then having to go back unexpectedly
just earlier last week to deliver
papers they had asked for while
I was still recovering from my
May trip.

We are expecting a small announcement
later on at the end of this week,
so for that reason, I am chopping
up my trip reports into small
releases as we pave the way for
other things coming.

All people who served at Fort McClellan,
Alabama between 1955 and 1978, and especially
if you have a disease or disability history
that has emerged since that time, I ask
that you stay tuned here to this FORUM
at the very least on a weekly basis
as we start to anticipate other announcements
coming from various destinations in
Washington.

We ask that you hold off trying to join
our McClellan list right now because
the demand and workload that Washington
is bringing in for this McClellan project
is robbing our ability to recruit more
members and get them up to speed
on what the advocacy pursuit is.

Just stand by and stay plugged into
this FORUM page as there is for sure,
movement on the McClellan matter
and I cannot tell you just yet how
the announcements will actually be
packaged at official sources when
it does.

For this Part 1 release, I will give
out the first matter stemming from
my trips.

The Government Accounting Office (GAO)
has agreed to do our veterans population
study from Fort McClellan. This is seperate
from the commitment we already have
from the Institute of Medicine to do
our national health study also.

The authorization papers for the GAO
study are in the works and that is
all I can say safely at this point.
The meeting went well and they were
very glad that I hooked up with them
and the guy knew quite a lot about
McClellan as a base already so it
made my job easier on presentation.

So for the first significant piece
of my trip reporting, the GAO is
now on the same page with the rest
of the effort to advance the Fort
McClellan legislation.

I am sure more will be coming on
this topic but this is as far as I can
talk on it right now.


Women if you are from Fort McClellan,
there is an entire slew of IMPOSTERS
and fakers and impersonators on this
internet pretending to be somewhow
fronting the Fort McClellan issue.
Don't listen to them, they are idiots
and if you saw them all in person
then you would immediately know
what a deceptive JOKE they are.

We have been fighting them for a long
time now, and the better part of them
are addicts, psychotics, and former
homeless shelter bum types and
NOT exactly who you would want to
take your information from. We are
the only official Fort McClellan
group that Washington has recognized
through our advocacy efforts, and
we are very much near the end of
these efforts before the transition
to VA oversight finally occurs.

So pass on by all the internet
BobbleHeads because they are NOT
connected to us in any way.

Official Washington is talking to US
and we are the ones getting our foots
in the door. So stay plugged in right
here at Vets for Justice and I
will get matters posted as soon
as they become known to me officially
and publicly.
