New Look For Our Web Pages
You may notice that some of our web pages look a little different. That’s because the VA listens to visitors’ comments about how our pages could be improved. The most obvious change is a new Search (page top) feature that allows you to search the entire VA, or just the site you are on. You may also notice changes to the blue "navigation buttons" on the left side of many pages.
