yea, I've already gave them a call yesterday and let them know I'd come by with my ID later today. I was unsure about it that is why I asked here. Everyone seems to be under the same conclusion. I certainly don't have the clout to try to challenge any of you one. I'm pretty certain you all know...

Sorry all for the late replies had a busy few days dealing with work and the weather. Thank you all for all of your replies and help.

Hi all I hope everyone is doing good today! I placed a FOIA Request with a VA State Agency. I am working on a research project for a class and I am wanting to cite some information I have found in the FOIAs and submit them as supporting documents. I have had a great experience requesting...
