What cause's mantle cell lymphoma if I'm a Vietnam vet?

During the immediate post Vietnam era, the US VA Hospital's policy was never to turn down a US veteran at it's door(s). Whilst many US business, city, county, state, etc. facilities did, along with US veterans organizations such as the VFW, American Legion, etc. (in some cases they reportedly REFUSED to allow Vietnam War vets into their organizations)...the VA Hospital (even though the waits were long and the staff could not escape the callus attitudes that prevailed in society during those times) at least the VA Hospitals still accepted the Vietnam Veteran...FREE OF CHARGE!

Today's VA Hospital might still have the policy of "never turning down a US vet at their doors." If you have your discharge papers in your hands and are claiming a service connected injury/wound/damage/etc. Then you have priority in seeing them.

If you don't have a service connected injury/wound/damage; bring your discharge papers in anyway, they'll sign you up for a specified category (longer waiting times), issue you a card, and they'll make an appointment for you.
