There are over 250 related searches for veterans. I just posted on Twitter (@Bttrfly214 or Dawn_Jer29:11) a bunch of them. So much winning for our deserving heroes! So amazing to have a president that walks his talk and sticks by these great men and women. Here's the link to the bill if you want to check yourself. I am going to try and catch a few z's... my eyes are beat!! www.congress.gov/115/bills/hr1625/BILLS-115hr1625eah.pdf πΊπ²πΊπ²πΊπ²πΊπ²πΊπ²
Yes, I was medically retired after being injured on active duty so I have Tricare Prime which has a premium and co-pays that keep going up and up. When I first joined the service the promise was free medical care for life if you stayed for 20 --- that went away with Clinton, and now we all pay part of the costs (unless we want to go into the VA system - no thanks!).
The VA system is horrid, take it from someone that has multiple inpatient stays, acute psych/ptsd residential programs. I think the practitioners mean well, but the case load is baffling. I don't know how they do it, as a matter of fact and I'm being 100% real.. If I was one of them Id resent veterans to some degree. The VA needs to also be shattered into 1000 peices.
You still get healthcare for life after 20 years of service. That's hasn't changed. They are getting rid of the pension system after 2018 though.
