A public accountability project documenting one family’s case with the Department of Veterans Affairs and publishing open letters to its secretary.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-17 issue.
For
Veterans and family caregivers checking VA records
Worth noticing
Its suggested five-minute check asks readers to compare the date of birth, email, and disability percentage on a VA Blue Button report.

Field notes

The homepage says each case is built from primary documents, including dates, case numbers, and VA records, and that families choose what to put on the record. Its Blue Button prompt narrows the check to three fields: date of birth, email, and disability percentage. The first letter is listed as mailed October 15, 2026; the site says it will publish a substantive response or keep counting the days without one.
