Default Military Benefits are Earned

I want to pass this on with a quote from the National Commander of the Disable American Veterans Delphine Metcalf-Foster: "I have encouraged veterans to submit a claim for illness and injury sustained as a result of service, only to have them hesitate and tell me that "it wasn't that bad" or "others had it worse"

It is noble and very "military" - to care for others before oneself and convey strength over adversity. But it has been a personal mission of mine to ensure those who sustained an illness or injury as a result of their time in the military are aware of the resources and support they earned through their service and sacrifice".

Don't ever let anyone tell you that you are "mooching" or "scamming" the system for something that you have earned.

Gary, I don't want to compare you to my Irish Setter but he had his removed and never missed a beat. It is kind of like a 265 SBC never had a filter and they seemed to work fine. I hope you are doing well.
