I am a disabled vet.

The actual percentage is croggling, and the effects will be good, and (honestly) a bit life changing.

I am rated 80 percent disabled. I get a pension. If I read it right I also get PX privileges (I can go back onto the Presidio of Monterey again).

I don't know if it gets me schooling (I think I might be able to get some rehab money). I don't know what it gets me by way of tuition breaks in Calif.

I'll have to look into it.

It's a lot to digest.

Yeah, it is a lot to digest. I'm satisfied that the system is treating you fairly, and relieved that the VA is being good to you. Now I hope they can manage to actually provide you with some useful and effective therapy too.

If it gets you schooling, that'll be good. It will combine with that partial tuition reimbursement to make things affordable.

From the perspective of a one-time platoon sergeant, and Company Gunnery Sergeant, and later a Commanding Officer, I'm really, really sorry that you suffered a disabling injury in the service of our country. It's a sad truth that the best troops are often the ones who take the brunt of the injuries. Thanks for being one of the best troops. Now I just hope our country does right by you.
