VA words, decoded.

30 plain-English term cards for the words that trip veterans up. Free, from one veteran to another.

I'm Steve, a Navy veteran. When I first dug into the VA system, the hardest part wasn't the paperwork. It was the vocabulary. Effective date, nexus, diagnostic code, TDIU. Nobody explains these in words you'd use at the kitchen table, so I made cards that do.
