An Open Letter to To General Shinseki

An Open Letter to To General Shinseki

by Peter Macdonald, Sgt USMC Semper Fi

The US Military personnel’s welfare after battle takes top priority. To allow any one veteran to go unnoticed on the street is to much. I receive letters, phone calls and emails every day from other veterans being neglected because of loop holes in the VA Programs. Not one person whom served in our military should be neglected for any reason. You as a General must realize this. The Men under your command all ways come first. This is the way as a Sgt my platoon could always depend on me.

I have sent written complaints to the VA and other government agencies over the past years. I am a 100% disabled Veteran. US Rep Shea-Porter used her federal powers to attempt to use my medical conditions as a weapon to stop my opinion letter. She had a Dr Biswas from the Manchester NH VAH file involuntary commitment orders to take my freedom. When this failed she filed false police complaints to get me arrested. The VA in NH then stopped my medical care. The VA director in NH told me to commit suicide if I refuse to be controlled by drugs. My complaints are all documented in the records yet not one complaint has been resolved. My medical has been restored but it is now sub-standard and limited. This letter is not about me. This letter is about all the other Veterans being neglected by a system that does not care.

My problems with the VA started because I volunteer to help others in the state of NH. Judge Peter Fauver used judicial powers to allow the Madbury NH selectmen to seek and get revenge on local residents that the selectmen do not like. This family asked me a high school drop out for help because of an opinion letter that I wrote. I volunteered my time. To stop me NH declared me a terrorist under the patriot act and took my freedom. The bogus charges were dropped after six months. NH uses the law enforcement State and local to harass my family to stop me. Fauver uses the local sheriff whom assigned a Captain to develop a case against me. I refuse to stop because I am a Sgt in the US Marine Corps. Our country always comes first. The United States of America. No person in the US should have medical care denied as a weapon of power.

Some day the newspapers will realize the truth and print my letters to let the people of the US know. The truth is a powerful weapon. We as US Military Veterans gave so that Freedom of the Press could remain as a weapon to expose government wrongs. The NH newspapers are so biased that they interfered with my campaign for NH state elected office. The newspapers refuse to print the opinion letters of a 100% disabled Veteran. People in power in NH are for some reason afraid of the judicial branch of government. Marines have stood alone in battle before and I will not stop until our nation is made aware of what NH has induced the VA to do to a 100% disabled Veteran. My case illustrates wrongs because the evidence is so well documented in my case but what they are doing to me is done to others in far worse condition than me.

If you Eric Shinseki want to be in charge of Veterans across this great nation helping all weather you like us or not is the key to being successful.

I question if you will even acknowledge receiving my letter. Maybe some newspapers will print this letter to make the US aware of neglected Veterans.
