Best Answer

If you were served from 1957 to 1960 and weredischarged under other-than-dishonorable conditions then you are a qualifying veteran for VA purposes. However, veteran status does not in and of itself confer any benefit. If you have disability caused or aggravated by service, you are entitled to service-connected disability benefits. Because 1957-1960 was not a wartime period, you are not entitled to non-service-connected pension benefits. You may also be entitled to a home loan guarantee benefit, but any GI Bill education benefit you had was likely extinguished decades ago. See 38 CFR Chapter 3. http://ecfr.gpoaccess.gov/cgi/t/text/text-idx?c=ecfr&tpl=/ecfrbrowse/Title38/38cfr3_main_02.tpl

When is the blood stripe issued in the usmc?

It is not issued, it is earned. Officers earn it by completing training to qualify for active duty. Enlisted Marines earn it by earning the non-commissioned officer status of at least corporal. As a fairly large number of active-duty Marines have not yet reached that status, a fairly large number of Marines can not wear it on dress blue uniforms.
