Family Says West L.A. VA Wrongfully Discharged Army Vet in Desperate Need of Medical Treatment, and Now He’s Living in Homeless Shelter

The family of an Army chaplain said he was being treated at the Veterans Affairs’ West Los Angeles Medical Center but was discharged against the advice of his doctors. Because his condition has rendered him a threat to his family, he can’t go home and is staying in a homeless shelter.

The family has set up a fundraising campaign to help cover their expenses.
