The August VSRA General Membership Luncheon meeting will be held at the Ted Constant Center, ODU on Tuesday, August 16, 2022, at 12:00 P.M. The guest speaker for the meeting will be Governor Glenn Youngkin. 

We last considered the Defense Base Act (DBA) in the Longshore Insider when we discussed two claims that 1) involved an employee who was injured while showering in his private apartment during off-duty hours, and 2) an employee who was injured during off duty hours when he jumped off the balcony of his private apartment because he had locked himself out. Both claims were covered under the Defense Base Act (DBA) by application of the Zone of Special Danger doctrine.
