I’m a Cold War vet with a long history of leg problems. After I left active duty I entered the Guard. Why they let me in I don’t know. I received a Medical Discharge, yet I’m not considered “service connected”. Go figure.

The contract we signed said that after 6 months, when we became veterans, that we would receive full medical and pharmacy, plus limited vision with dental in emergency. This was supposed to be for life. Then some congress decided to change the rules. I have to fight for what I was promised.

What service organization is representing you?
How long were you in the Guards? I can see how that service might be tripping you up.
