I don’t know what to think...SG.

My first reaction, if it’s virulently anti-military than there’s probably something bogus about it.

Now I got to figure out who’s behind this and how have they mis-stated things.

See, so many years of being misled by the libs I’m finally wary of anything like this.

Minimum Service Requirement

You do not have to meet the 24 continuous months of active duty service requirement if you:

* Were a reservist who was called to Active Duty and who completed the term for which you were called, and who was granted an other than dishonorable discharge, or
* Were a National Guard member who was called to Active Duty by federal executive order, and who completed the term for which you were called, and who was granted an other than dishonorable discharge, or
* Only request a benefit for or in connection with:
o a service-connected condition or disability; or
o treatment and/or counseling of sexual trauma that occurred while on active military service; or
o treatment of conditions related to ionizing radiation; or
o head or neck cancer related to nose or throat radium treatment while in the military.
* Were discharged or released from active duty for a hardship , or
* Were discharged with an “early out”; or
* Were discharged or released from active duty for a disability that began in the service or got worse because of the service; or
* Have been determined by VA to have compensable service-connected conditions; or
* Were discharged for a reason other than disability, but you had a medical condition at the time that
o Was disabling, and
o In the opinion of a doctor, would have justified a discharge for disability (in this last case, the disability must be documented in service records)
