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.
