I am a retired disabled vet, and I appreciate the compensation I receive from the VA for my injuries. Injuries that cost me my ability to earn a paycheck in the civilian world. When you retire at 43 and have a family to raise what are you to do? Does begging on a street corner sound about right to you?

That's not the point. I served more the 20 years in the USAF and earned my retirement (pension)

Waste of time trying to use reason with those that will not listen.

Gratitude is riches. You, sir, are a rich man.

I've changed my mind. A man with your attitude deserves not only disability pay and retirement pay, but anything else America can offer. Thank you for your service.

Sounds to me like you deserve the disability...and if you earned the retirement before becoming disabled...YOU SHOULD GET THEM BOTH!!
