PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals from the district court's orders dismissing

his civil actions which claimed that he was improperly denied

veteran's benefits. We have reviewed the records and the district

court's opinions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, in No.

95-2263, we deny Appellant's motion to amend his petition and we
affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Marsh v. Department
of Veterans Affairs, No. CA-95-2-3 (N.D.W. Va. May 25, 1995). In

No. 95-2482, we deny in forma pauperis status and dismiss the

appeal of the reasoning of the district court. Marsh v. United

States, No. MISC-95-5 (N.D.W. Va. June 29, 1995). We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

                                      No. 95-2263 - AFFIRMED

                                      No. 95-2482 - DISMISSED
