Unfortunately the VA is a federal organization, so despite medical marijuana being legal in Colorado, cannabis is still a drug under their laws.

What you are saying makes perfect sense. If he must circumvent the VA to obtain the medicine he needs then he should and is well within his right to do so.
I think it is downright abhorrent that this country would deny a man the medication he needs after having fought to defend it.
