kate-1 Los Angeles, CA	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #2 Jul 22, 2008 Those vets are absolutely right!! Once the govt. starts giving away or selling land on the V,A, property it just diminishes the space available. The WW2 vets are dying off rapidly but better think ahead to all the men serving in the last 60 plus years, especially the Iran conflicts. Where will they go in 20 to 60 years? There are so many more surviving veterans now due to modern medicine that Hospital and Hospice care will be really needed in the future. I am not a vet but am in their age group. But I see the writing on the wall.

I wish ALL of our older vets were as motivated and healthy as he is! AND, I also believe it a crime that any land on the VA property be given away just for greedy people to make more! You go, Mr. Palmer!!!
