2 Senior Vice Our new 2019 American Legion Membership cards have been available at the Post for renewal. Currently as of November 21st, District 12 reported that Post 13 has a total 2019 Paid Membership of 332 members, at an overall 61.2% of our Department s Membership Goal which put District 12 in FIRST PLACE Statewide. As always, although the 2018 Membership cards are still good until December 31, 2018, The American Legion encourages us to renew early to ensure the success of our Post, District, Department and National Programs. If you know a qualifying Veteran or Active Duty Service Member, invite them to attend and/or stop by the Post on Thursday, Friday or Saturday afternoons and evenings to see who we are and what we are about. If anyone knows of a Veteran or Veteran s Dependent in need of a FREE aluminum Wheelchair Ramp for a home, please contact the Post Commander, the Senior Vice-Commander or one of the Junior Vice-Commanders. Delivery and installation will be arranged through the Post 13 Executive Committee. When the ramp is no longer needed by the Veteran, the Post 13 Executive Committee will arrange for the return of the ramp to Post 13 and placed in storage for the next needing Veteran. We also have a limited inventory of medical-assistance items stored at Post 13. Follow the Airborne!!!! Rod Pedersen Sr. Vice Commander Post 13 Valdosta rod.pedersen.1956@gmail.com Jr. Vice Stephen Blanton sabusn6976@gmail.com We observed Veterans Day at LHS inside the gym due to inclement weather. Thanks to all who made this a success. The 21 Gun Salute was done just outside the door, This day is for all veterans so fellow legionnaires please plan to attend next year. Special thanks to the Legion Family kitchen crew who served the BBQ lunch. We also observed the Marine Corps 243rd birthday. We also supported several Hospice "We Honor Vets" ceremonies during November. I hope all enjoyed Thanksgiving. No membership meetings until January New LED parking lot lights have been purchased and will soon be installed. Please invite fellow veterans to join our Legion Family of Legionnaires, Auxiliary, Sons of the American Legion and Legion Riders. It is the members that turn a building into a Post Home.

Please continue to invite veterans to join our American Legion Family and let us all find a way to serve our fellow Veterans, Community, State and Nation. For God and Country. Stephen Blanton JVC cell or leave message Ask yourself each day, What have I done to help a veteran today? Service Officer VA Pension Program: Entitlement Regulations Amended The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) recently amended its regulations governing entitlements to VA pension and Parents Dependency and Indemnity Compensation, which are need-based programs. The amended regulations bring consistency to the pension process and ensure benefits are available for Veterans and survivors with financial need, said VA Secretary Robert Wilkie. They will help maintain the integrity of and provide clarity to our needs-based pension program. VA s pension program provides monthly benefit payments to eligible wartime Veterans and their survivors with financial need. The pension regulations, which were updated Oct. 18, cover the following: Establish a clear net-worth limit for income and assets for Veterans to qualify for pension, Establish a 36-month look-back period to review asset transfers at less than fair market value that reduce net worth and create pension entitlement, Establish up to a five-year penalty period to be calculated based on the portion of the covered assets that would have made net worth excessive, and Updates medical expense definitions for consistency with VA internal guidelines. The changes are intended to ensure VA only pays benefits to those Veterans with a genuine need. For more information on VA s pension program, visit VA Blue Water Claims: House to Senate Pass the Bill Already As tens of thousands of so-called Blue Water Navy veterans wait for Congress to act, 45 House Members are calling on the Senate to advance crucial legislation to expand much-needed care to them. In a letter sent to Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-GA), Rep. Tim Walz (D-MN) and 44 other House Democrats urged the Senate VA Committee chairman to pass the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act, so that the legislation can be brought to the Senate floor as soon as possible. It is a very sad reality that every day of delay means there are fewer Blue Water Navy veterans who earned and deserved compensation and Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) care for their illnesses, the letter reads. As veterans advocates, we have all heard from frustrated veterans who say it sometimes looks to them as if the Congress and the VA are denying benefits just waiting for them to die. Unless Congress passes this bill, it will be hard to argue against that notion. The House unanimously passed the bill in June, which represents the first time these veterans saw any real progress from their government, says Walz. However, it s extremely disappointing to see the legislation lose traction in the Senate, presumably

4 because the Trump Administration has come out in strong opposition to the bill, not based on policy, but because it simply does not want to invest the money it would take to do right by these veterans. The legislation would finally grant a presumption of exposure to Agent Orange for sailors who served in territorial waters off the coast of Vietnam; U.S. service members who served on-the-ground in Vietnam during the war already have that. It would also allow these veterans to receive expedited care and other VA benefits if they re suffering from illnesses connected to their exposure. Some 90,000 Navy Vietnam veterans stand to benefit. The issue gained conflict when VA Secretary Robert Wilkie said he did not support the measure due to, in part, a lack of scientific evidence. The VA argues that since there is no definitive proof that exposure to the dioxin-riddled Agent Orange has led to any identifiable diseases, there s no reason to provide disability benefits to these vets. They re suffering from cancers and other diseases common for people their age, the VA says. Another concern the VA has is the cost. Expanding benefits to Blue Water veterans would cost the agency nearly $7 billion over the next decade. Looking to offset that cost, the bill would increase fees on VA home loans. But VA officials say that would be unfair to the general veteran population. VA will continue to object and try to find roadblocks, the House members wrote. It is the Congress job to say enough is enough. Agent Orange was used by the U.S. military to clear out forests, denying the enemy cover. But the chemical contains a known cancercausing agent, dioxin. Sailors at the time and veterans since say the ships would use contaminated water on board and then distill it enough so service members could drink it. It appears as if exposure to toxins by American service members in theatres of war will always be a reality, says the letter. As Members of Congress, our task for the future will be to take the lessons learned from the use of Agent Orange in Vietnam so many decades ago, and find ways to forthrightly acknowledge the exposure, determine the service connection and then compensate service members in far less than two generations. VA Community Care: Three StepsTo Access Veterans may be eligible to receive care from a provider outside of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in their community when VA cannot provide the care that is needed. This type of care is known as community care, and is paid for by VA. Although some changes occurred with community care recently, Veterans continue to have access to this type of care. The process starts at your VA medical facility. Follow the steps below to see if you re eligible: 1. Go to VA Schedule an appointment with a VA provider. Your VA care team will work with you to see if you are eligible for community care. Eligibility is based on your medical needs, care that is available at VA, and other requirements. Important: Make sure VA confirms you are eligible and authorized before you proceed to the next step. 2. Make an Appointment VA will work with you to find a community provider and make an appointment. You can select a community provider, or VA can select one for you. Important: The community provider selected must be in VA s network and be willing to accept payment from VA. 3. Receive Care Arrive promptly for your appointment. Important: If you need to schedule a follow-up appointment, check with your community provider to make sure VA authorized the care. If VA did not authorize the care, your community provider should contact VA to arrange the care you need.

5 Note: Go to to see VA s list of Frequently Asked Questions if you have questions about the above steps. Getting Support: If you have questions about your specific circumstances, please contact your nearest VA medical facility. Go to or contact (866) for questions about the Veterans Choice Program Call the VA Adverse Credit Helpline at (877) for help to resolve adverse credit reporting and debt collection issues from using the Veterans Choice Program.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and were able to celebrate with family and/or friends. Jimmy and I were excited to serve the immediate family a traditional turkey dinner. As usual, cook for 2 days and it s gone in 30 minutes. But I was thrilled to know that I still had it in me. This is the time of year that the unit gets its busiest. We will be decorating the post on Thursday the 6th of December at 10:00am, helping the SAL host its annual Kids Christmas Party and Pancake Breakfast with Santa at 9:00am on Saturday the 8th of December. The Post-Christmas Party is on the 15th. Fellowship at 6:00pm and dinner will be served at 7:00. Please call the post and reserve a place by 8th of December and include the number your party. On Monday the 10th of December at 10:00am the unit will be putting Christmas Bags together for 30 nursing home veterans and will deliver them on Wednesday the 19th at 10:00am. Please, if you can help with any of these events call or just show up. I know we can put you to work. The unit Boston Butt Sale went well. I do understand that a few people were disappointed, if you know of someone that is and still has a ticket please let me know and it will be corrected. Thank you to all that helped sell tickets and made this a great fund raiser. Also, I want to thank the Post family for their support. Friends of Our Troops or the Christmas Card campaign was once again a big hit. I mailed off 440 cards which was up compared to last years 230. I want to thank all of you that signed cards. We even had nonmembers participate. Hope to get an earlier start next year. If you have any leftover cards the unit will be more than happy to take them. Livia Tatum is the Chaplain. Her contact # is (229) Please contact her if you are aware of a unit member that s ill or could just use a little cheering up. Don t forget to pray for our men & women in uniform and their families. This is a difficult time to be separated from family and loved ones. Let s not forget our first responders.

6 Thank you to all who got out and VOTED in the mid-term elections. If I don t see you before hand, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year.
