Missing Veterans Shape Paradox of Secrecy and Benefit Rules
Washington AP reports that the US Veterans Administration keeps missing veterans' locations confidential, complicating benefit claims. Cases include four overlapping claims where spouses and a sweetheart all seek compensation while the veteran may file for benefits elsewhere.

The bureau forwards inquiries privately, and relatives may pursue arrest warrants if the veteran resists disclosure.
