Within the last two weeks,the “money wheel” at theVA Regional Office in De-

troit has beenturning andstopped ontwo Vietnamveterans fromOlivet andMarshall.

Both veterans did not wanttheir picture in the paper.Both are people that I filedclaims for and got them 60percent service-connectedfor exposure to Agent Or-ange (dioxin) while serving

in Vietnam in the 1960s.It took over four years and

a lot of hard work to get theveteran from Olivet fromzero to 60 percent and thento 100 percent I/U. He’s aMarine and his birthday isthe same day as mine, onlyhe’s younger. We have be-come great friends over thelast five years. It took me ayear to convince him to letme do his claim. He’s a pri-vate person and flies underthe radar. Once in a while Ican get him out and toloosen up a little. I had some

help from his wife gettinghim to let me do his claim. Iknow she was pushing him alittle They’re great people.

The other veteran fromMarshall, I also got 60 per-cent and then to 100 percentI/U. This veteran is good onthe computer and helped mefind evidence to support hisclaim with the VA. This vet-eran’s claim took a little overa year. The reason for that isbecause this veteran wasonly claiming one medicalcondition. The veteran fromOlivet had a claim with mul-

tiple medical conditions thatslowed down his claim.

Over the past four years, Ihave gotten eight veterans to100 percent service-con-nected. There are a lot ofbenefits that go to the vet-eran with 100 percent rating.It is not only a privilege, butalso a lot of satisfaction be-ing able to do this for veter-ans.

Editor’s Corner

Summer officially arrived lastWednesday, but in actuality,judging from the hot weatherwe’ve had in recent weeks, youcould say it arrived sometimearound Memorial Day.

Ah, those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer.I don't know about you, but does it seem like

summer isn't as “lazy” as it used to be?Summer used to mean that we took things just a

bit slower. It was a time to catch our breath andjust take it easy.

But, today, summer is getting harder to distin-guish from the other three seasons in terms ofhow busy we are.

When I was a kid growing up in Florida (whereit feels like summer year-round, and thus I had agood excuse for my laziness throughout the year),the three-month “summer vacation” from schoolseemed to go on forever, probably because wedidn't have our entire summer planned out byChristmas like so many of us do today.

I remember hanging out with friends day afterday as we'd play some ball in the street in themorning, come in and watch some game show onTV (High Rollers was my favorite), eat peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches for lunch, hit the locallibrary and then go swimming at the city hallpool.

Once I got home, my dad and I would playsome ping-pong or we'd siphon out some gasolinefrom our station wagon (what memories) to fill upthe lawn mower so I could cut the grass and runover (and annihilate) all the sprinkler heads.

With few exceptions, my schedule was the sameday after day, just like the movie Groundhog Day.

Yes, it was a boring existence at times, but for-tunately for us, as it turned out, we didn't knowany better.

Today, summer is so planned out that it leavesvery little time to be bored.

But to paraphrase that Holiday Inn commercialfrom a few years ago: Don't underestimate thevalue of being bored.

With all the things that keep us on the run, it'snice sometimes just to have the chance to do noth-ing so we can reflect on all the things we've doneand appreciate all the things we have in our life.

Otherwise, summer rushes by, seemingly underthe radar, and then we're left scratching our headsasking, “How come the leaves are changing colorso soon?”

So, let's try to take it a little easier and feel likewe've been given a real compliment the next timesomeone calls us lazy.

Until next week, may the good news be yours.

The 23rd Annual Alaska Great Lakes Project left Marshall June 16 with approxi-mate 80 students, junior leaders and adults who will tour the nation’s 49th statefor the next three weeks. The ad-visor&chronicle asked these six participantswhat they were looking forward to most on their trip.

Letters and Columns

David Isaacs,Marshall

“I’m looking forward to the whale-watching trip and the midnight base-ball game.”

Isabel Saville,Marshall

“Learning how to be more responsi-ble for myself as well as hanging outwith my friends for three weeks.”

Word on the StreetWhat are you looking forward to most in Alaska?

Abbey Ufkes,Marshall

“I’m looking forward to climbing amountain in Denali.”

Steve Washburn,Marshall

“I’m looking forward to all the newadventures I haven’t seen in my previ-ous 13 visits.”

Maddie Benson,Marshall

“I am so excited to see a moose.”

Fortunate to live in gifted, generous communityTo the Editor:It was with great pleasure

and excitement that we cele-brated the 75th Anniversaryof the founding of WilderCreek ConservationClub. Over 450 people at-tended the festivities and allseemed to enjoy everyminute of it.

We opened the day with anoutstanding band concert pre-

sented by the WCCC FestivalBand (aka Marshall RotaryBand). These fine musicianspresented an exciting pro-gram that was met with re-sounding applause.

Following the concert,guests and members walkedthe grounds, enjoyed buggyrides, primitive craft demon-strations and a tasty, home-

cooked meal. We believe thatall left the grounds with asmile on their face and thedesire to return to this beauti-ful, peaceful area.

This day would not havebeen possible without thecollaboration of many, manyindividuals and organiza-tions. We are so fortunate tolive in an area with so many

gifted and generouspeople. A big thank you goesout to all of you, and we lookforward to your return toWilder Creek ConservationClub.

Why were Marshall Academy students left out?To the Editor:Whoever submitted the arti-

cle to the ad-visor&chronicletitled, “Twelve Marshallstudents honored for Chil-dren’s Literature Project”on page 4 of the May 26 is-sue, submitted a false andmisleading article. In fact,17 were honored and five

(30 percent) are MarshallAcademy Students.

Since you must haveknown how hard they allworked on this project, whywould you hurt five ofthem by purposely ignoringthem and lying that only 12were honored? These fivewere hurt and we all were

saddened by your blatantlie. How dare you!

We all know why youdid it, but you shouldn’ttake your disdain out onchildren. If you must, takeit out on your upstandingMarshall citizens who es-tablished the Academy.Leave the children alone.

Dave Ratajczak,Marshall
