Vet Needs Help!

Matt Bellinger wrote on 2008-12-27 16:05:02.0

Comments: Comments: I am a former Marine, Gulf Vet, now attorney, representing a Korean War vet pro bono. Trying to get VA to provide long overdue benefits. Need your help. I have a copy of a Form 8-27, dated 12 Oct. 1951, which lists "Wound, lacerated. Scalp. No A or N involved." What does the A and N stand for? Also, it says "LD yes." What does LD stand for? BTW, a Capt. Baker signed the vet's form, transfering him to the 171st. Evac Hosp.; may provide a memory or two from the past.

THANKS ALL FOR YOUR SERVICE AND SACRIFICE!

Matt
