More Wins From 2024 

Vietnam Veterans of America (VVA) and its veteran service officers (VSOs) accomplished a lot in 2024 on behalf of those who served, and will continue to file and follow claims for veterans benefits in the new year. 

Last August, the Massachusetts office assisted two veterans with claims that resulted in 100% service-connected disability. The veterans will no longer need to worry about losing housing because they can’t work.

The same office helped a Vietnam-era veteran prove to the VA that he was in fact stationed in Guam, making several of his health conditions presumptive service-connected disabilities under the PACT Act.

They also assisted with a housebound veteran’s new claim for ischemic heart disease and hypertension that resulted in a retroactive payment of $37,525 and monthly payments of more than $4,000 a month. 

Contact a VVA Veteran Service Officer to assist with your claim in states that have a benefits program here, or search for a VSO from another organization through the VA’s website in states where we do not. Enter your ZIP code or city and state, and you’ll see which VSOs serve your area.

VVA wishes you a safe and happy new year!
