Is there a VA rep in Okinawa?

Does anybody have any information regarding VA benifits and using them while living in Okinawa?

My main concern is I am currently getting MEB'd, more then likley will be getting severance and then a % from the VA for an infection in my heart.

The lovley military dental care while I am on active duty will now not fix my teeth, they believe that the VA will take care of that up to 180 days out. I am wondering if I will be able to get that done in Okinawa. I need 2 implants.

Also wondering if there is a way to file VA claims from Okinawa and how hard that process is.

The VA rotates a different VA Rep here every couple of months.
And he or she splits their time between Kadena and Foster.
