Missouri Veterans Commission Service Officer for Clark County (Hannibal office, monthly Kahoka day)

Missouri has no county veterans service officers in statute; the Missouri Veterans Commission's officers do the work (see the Missouri entry). The Commission's service officer locator's office record lists the Hannibal office at 203 North 6th Street, Hannibal, MO 63401, first floor, serving "Marion, Ralls, Lewis, Clark, Shelby" counties: John Simpson, Veteran Service Officer ([email protected]), 573-248-2550, Monday to Thursday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Friday 8 a.m. to noon, under supervisor Arthur Nott-Hopkins. The record was last edited March 7, 2025. In Kahoka. The county's site carries the Commission's notice (posted April 9, 2024): "Veteran Service Officer will be at the Clark County Courthouse in the Recorder of Deeds office from 9:00-til 3:00pm Every 3 rd Thursday of the month. Call the Veteran Service Officer, John Simpson at 573-248-2550 if you want an appointment. Other-Wise walk ins will be seen." The notice is more than two years old, so call before going; the courthouse is at 111 E. Court Street, Kahoka. What the help is. Free claims help with VA compensation, pension, survivor and burial benefits, and appeals. No rating is needed to ask.
