The bodies of at least 28 veterans were found this past week at the LA Coroner’s office. The bodies had never been buried.
CBS Local reported:
The bodies of 28 veterans at the L.A. County Morgue were finally moved Friday for burial to the Riverside National Cemetery.
CBS2/KCAL9 pressed the L.A. County Coroner’s Office Thursday to find out why the bodies had not yet received a proper burial after a source indicated there may have been as many as 60 veterans at the morgue for the past year and a half.
The morgue says the bodies were unclaimed and they don’t know how long the veterans were there.
The law states veterans are supposed to receive a proper burial.
The Veterans Administration says they were never notified the bodies were processed and ready to be buried.
More than two dozen bodies were transported to the Riverside National Cemetery Friday afternoon and more could be moved as they are identified.
On Friday evening, KCAL9′s Stacey Butler reported the LA County Morgue and the Veteran’s Administration were blaming each other for the mistake.
Butler reported from the National Ceremony where the bodies are scheduled for burial.
She spoke to citizens who were outraged at how the deceased vets were treated.
I hate to defend Obama on anything, but I think the VA has been screwed up for much longer than he has been in office.
The VA is not involved in Traitor manning gender reassignment surgery. The VA only helps honorably discharge service men and women. It is one of the prerequisites to receive veteran benefits of any kind from the VA.
Thanks for posting this pictures. RESIST is the word..be a freedom fighter for our time. Resist, delay, deny, obstruct, destroy the enemy in any and all ways possible.

Tell those Obama-loving vets that antiwar liberals will diss them even in death, and show them this example.
That doesn't excuse the fact that he won't fire Shinseki. He has no intention of investigating this. You're right, this has been going on for many years before zip was born.
May God bless you Onyx. You have been through a lot lately. I’ve been praying for you.
Thanks for the clarification on that situation.
I’m truly appreciative and humbly grateful and thankful for your prayers. I am actually lifted by them.
God bless and keep you and everyone you love.
You are right I think Obama really cares about the VA scandal. I wouldn’t be surprised if he found it a bit funny, knowing how evil he is.

Are FReepers aware of the “No Vet Dies Alone” program?
No I was not aware of it- but something similar was posted on the other thread.

The veterans had no families to take the folded flags from their coffins. Gold Star mothers volunteered and went to the funeral and were their family and took the folded flags.
