Disabled Veterans

Why Is This Idea Important?: The reason this is a good idea is this. 1) It would be a good recruitment tool. 2) You could increase volunteers from the disabled vet community, thus saving tax dollars. 3) Most disabled vet don’t have a lot of money so the discounts at the post PX and commissary would help out. 4) It’s just the right thing to do!

There are thousands of service connected disabled vets who can not use on Post Military privileges.

Currently you have to be a 100% disabled vet, in order for that vet and spouse if he/she is married to use on post privileges, or retired from the military.

I believe if you were injured while you were in the military, the same should be allowed for that veteran and spouse if the veteran is married.. The veteran may not be 100% disabled to use post privileges and can’t be retired if the vet can’t reenlist if the injury prevents him/her from doing so.

  1. Our vets healthy, hurt or otherwise should have benefits like congress for life. Especially those hurt in some way. But remember, hurt may not be seen. What percent that come back live with night mares and have a hard time fitting in as before they left.....

    I'm not sure why anyone would bother to go onpost for shopping. Though there's no sales tax, the prices are terrible.
