No. 86-2043.
United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
Submitted May 30, 1986.Decided Aug. 11, 1986.

Before ERVIN, CHAPMAN and WILKINSON, C.J.
PER CURIAM:


1
Gregory A. Burkett appeals the dismissal under Fed.  R. Civ. P. 8(a) of his complaint for being vague, conclusory, frivolous, and lacking a jurisdictional basis . Our review of Burkett's pleadings indicates that his complaint fails under even the most liberal application of Rule 8(a).  We would note further that 38 U.S.C. 5 211(a) precludes review of Veterans Administration benefits determinations in the federal courts.  See Johnson v. Robinson, 415 U.S. 361, 370-73 (1974);  American Federation of Government Employees, AFL-CIO v. Nimmo, 711 F.2d 28, 30 (4th Cir. 1983);  University of Maryland v. Cleland, 621 F.2d 98, 100 (4th Cir. 1980);  Wickline v. Brooks, 446 F.2d 1391 (4th Cir. 1971), cert. denied, 404 U.S. 1061 (1972).


2
We therefore affirm the judgment below.  Because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively, we dispense with oral argument.


3
AFFIRMED.
