"Delay and deny and hope that I die"
I've written a story, scheduled for publication Sunday, that examines some of the reasons why it often takes veterans years to obtain disability and pension benefits to which they're entitled. We look at the delays through the eyes of Butch Kirkman of Archdale, who served eight years on active duty with the Air Force and has spent four years, so far, seeking benefits.
Look for it at News-Record.com Sunday morning.
UPDATE: Story here.
