Fayette County American Legion Post 105’s own Dale Barnett, current national commander of The American Legion, is shown during his recent appearance before the Joint Senate and House Committee on Veterans Affairs in Washington DC. He spoke Feb. 24.

Barnett expressed the frustrations of Legionnaires with the following comment:

“You cannot imagine how disappointed I and my fellow American Legion members were when five senior VA witnesses failed to appear at an accountability hearing, and the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs had to issue subpoenas to summon them. Our disappointment only grew after additional hearings established wrongdoing, and punishments were imposed, only to be overturned in the appeals process, Veterans do not see this as accountability.”
