Letter to the Editor Waco Tribune Herald

VA benefits necessary

Congress keeps wanting to cut VA benefits. Yet Washington sends more troops to Iraq and other dangerous areas.
That means more combat veterans and more services needed.
If Congress and the president want to cut services and balance the budget, why don't they take a cut in pay, medical coverage and their other perks?
Let a roadside bomb in Iraq cripple them, and then tell them their services are cut.
