the bottom lines -

So now this WAR HERO, who was so willing to give his life
for his country is being evicted;
thrown into the street on the day most of us will be
celebrating, eating turkey, and giving thanks.
We all have something to thank him for, but will we?
Is this the way we treat our HEROES?

Call your Rep. in Congress
On November 17th, 2008 wisen says:

They usually like, and have the authority to intervene in situations like this.

It's just a shame that it's after the election. They are always more helpful just before elections.

Call in to your local radio show and ask veterans to call the Rep. The more calls the better.

when I lived and travelled all over the USA

I met many homeless veterans
I don't understand how your country can leave a guy in a wheelchair on the street and his most prized asset being the cowboyboots.

I suggest come to Canada and live in dignity.

Question ?
On November 17th, 2008 Bonhomme Richard says:

Every State has VA nursing homes, what's in the hell is the problem ?

You may want to check Military Record Requests -

http://www.archives.gov/st-louis/military-personnel/standard-form-180.html

and make sure this guy is legit (you too).

A friends husband told me and everybody he was a Navy Veteran, his son too. When he was dying the VA said he was never in the service and he died in a Catholic nursing home.

Judging by his rank he wasn't in the service that long and would put in question him having both the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal and Vietnam Service Medal. You can have only one, not both for Vietnam. I know because that is my case.

Something ain't right !

USMC Vietnam Veteran

You are correct in telling us
On November 17th, 2008 Hannah2 says:

that checking up on its legitimacy and making sure it checks out with the records. I have passed on your message to the writer of the message.

She responded first off with this message: Just in case he does end up losing his home. You can send any correspondence/contributions to Armando Leguillow c/o Gladys Williams 1522 Unionport Road #5H, Bronx, NY 10462. Wow that was really fast. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Gladys

Personally I have no way of checking out the records as it appears that one needs to be somehow related to the person. If there is a way around it you might know how.

Anyhow, I posted her message with the best of faith in her sincerity. Having had quite a bit to do with Vietnam Veterans here in Australia, I do know that there are veterans who seem to 'miss the boat' so to speak.

Is there an address to send donations to him?
On November 17th, 2008 truthy says:

Any idea how much his immediate need is? When is he scheduled to be evicted? No friends or family to take him in, at least temporarily? Homeless shelter? Church group?

I don't know much more than
On November 17th, 2008 Hannah2 says:

It has 2 contact phone numbers at the bottom of her message though. If interested, please don't hesitate to contact either of these numbers.
