If they earned them, probably

unless you have 3 ratings of 40 30 AND 20 You are stuck at 60% It seems like the VA will give you a lot of 10%'s but will not give you three of 40 30 or 20. After hours of reseach and using their chart. if you get 40 30 10 10 10 10 0 is still goes to 60%

key to get the highest one of your ratings over the 30%

Good luck the VA will keep denying deny deny deny and keep you at the 60% level.

I'm at 110% with a pay amount of 60% they hit me with 30 20 10 10 10 10 10 10 0 0 0

Good luck with your research..

The so-called "Bonus Army" marched to Washington DC in June, 1932 and many camped there until dispersed by the US Army on July 28, 1932.

There are such things as "honorary" promotions, which have no effect on retirement pay and benefits, but, generally speaking, the only way to truly be promoted within the military after retirement is to come out of retirement and go back into the military.

By definition, a veteran is someone who has done or experienced ... so any person who has served in the military in any capacity is a veteran, whether service was in combat or not.

As a disabled veteran, I am witness to such cases where the veteran does collect veterans administration and social security disability. Usually the veteran is receiving VA. disability at the 100% rate. Social security will fight awarding it, usually based on the applicants age. The older you are though, the easier it is to collect both.

There are many things we can learn from veterans, some of them are responsibility, perseverance, and strength.

Responsibility because to succeed, veterans had to be responsible in all possible ways like having to wake up every morning, or doing harsh work every single day to achieve their goals etc.

Perseverance because to progress in war they had to have tenacity in all their work to be able to become grate soldiers.

Finally strength because obviously during war soldiers had to make tough decisions that attempted their lives or someone else in many times and they had to be strong to overwhelm the situation.

West Virginia, It also has the only surviving WW1 veteran. The state also has more veterans of the military period. More people enlist in the state of West Virginia than any other state. Hope it helped.

That's a piece of paper you get when discharged from military service. Don't lose it because you will need it if you ever apply for any vereran's benefits. The DD Form 214 is more important than the actual discharge paper.

No, there is no"list"of everyone that was decorated during this time period. It would be thousands and thousands of names if there were such a list.

no because its a national holiday

Yes you can. If you are (were) US ARMY, you can write to: DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY, US ARMY MILITARY PERSONNEL CENTER, 9700 Page Blvd., St. Louis, MO. 63132-5200. Simply explain that through no fault of your own, your medal(s) were lost or stolen, and they will replace them ONE TIME for FREE! I know this works, because I've done it. For other services, I'm sure they have the same. Contact a Veteran Service Officer at a VFW or American Legion, or at most Federal, State or County Office Buildings, and they will help.
