I am at 50% with a claim pending and it is just a plain white card. But I do have a retiree card. Thanks for the info.

If anyone has a service-connected disability be sure to check with your State Vet Affairs. Some States have tuition waivers for your kids college, reduced rates on fishing and hunting license, reduced or free entry into States Parks. National Parks are free to disabled vets.
