You say 22 Thousand?!
According to the AP, 22 thousand troops are already seeking care from the VA -- it is not clear as to whether this number includes those injured in combat (no mention of troops in rehab for lost limbs for example) --
"Nearly 18,000 soldiers who have returned from Iraq have sought care at VA health facilities, officials reported at the end of March. A separate report in mid-April said 4,000 troops from the war in Afghanistan sought care, although there is some overlap from those who served in both conflicts."
