Over the weekend, the usual suspects have been blasting YouTube with clickbait titles designed to scare you into watching their content.

They claim the VA is taking away secondaries. Not true. They claim it’s now harder for secondary service connection. Not true.

Spicer makes it EASIER to get secondary/aggravation claims service connected by reinforcing that if it is at least “as likely as not” that but-for X disability, Y disability would it have occurred or been aggravated, then Y disability should be service connected.

Put into crayon-eater speak: that rear end collision you had last year? But-for your parents humping without protection all those years ago, it would not have occurred.

My good friend Wes mccauley wrote a blog on this that explains it in more detail:

Arriving on a Friday night (7/3) to Athens and leaving that next Saturday morning (7/11). We plan to spend 7/3-7/6 in Athens. Then 7/6-7/8 in Milos, then 7/8-7/10 in Naxos, heading back to Athens the evening of 7/10 to catch our 7/11 flight.

Only thing we are set on is either a half day or full day boat tour of Milos.

Should be about 3 days each in Athens/Milos/Naxos. We want to do sightseeing, hiking, and have a lazy beach day or two.

Are we packing too much or too little in? Any tips?
