VA leaders have pledged to keep services operating normally, even as several senior staffers depart office.
Gulf War veterans and Post-9/11 vets suffereing from leukemia and bladder cancer will get presumptive benefits status under a new decision by VA.
The new deal could help tens of thousands of veterans previously kicked out of the ranks under the military's former 'don't ask, don't tell' policy.
Department leaders hope to encourage more veterans to look into general wellness treatments by lowering costs for appointments.
