I could be wrong about this, but it is my understanding that once you retire the military stops paying you. However, I know for a fact that you get pension and a ton of federal benefits, all which can be found at www.va.gov which is the government's veteran's association. Also, lots of third party companies like militaryloans.com, for example, offer great loans at low rates to retired military personnel, so something like that is definitely worth checking out.
This is a 2001 number, but contact the Agent Orange Hotline at: 1-800-749-8387.
He has limited role, authorising situations that can make things worse if the go wrong. In a war the defence minister and military command centres make the decisions.
Under normal circumstances, you can elect to change your pay during a PCS when you inprocess finance. Make an appointment with finance if you are in the middle of a tour to change your monthly pay.
That will depend on how long he has been in the military and the rank structure in that armed force. In the US, a new sergeant would make about $2000 a month.
There are many ways in which you can thank a veteran. Personally thank them for their service, buy them a meal, or make a donation to a military foundation or charity.
Not unless you served in the military as a firefighter. Civilians don't make veterans.
No the federal government created Veteran's Day
Politicians are always happy to make a speech and are likely to be asked. A veteran with an outstanding military record is also a good possibility. Preachers often speak at local gatherings for Memorial.
No, it does not.
No, not anymore. During WW2 Ford made plenty of Jeeps for the military.
Of course...
Absolutely not unless they served in the military. No, simply because a police officer may on occasion encounter a violent situation, it does not make them a military veteran. When the going gets tough the police can quit where as the military person must go on and do their best under the worst of conditions. The military is not represented by a union. Military spend time away from their loved ones. Military sacrafice a normal life. I realize many police consider themselves para-military but they are simply.....police. Not members of the military. If police with no military service want to be called vets or want to join vetrans organizations or be honored a veterans........join the military.
During the long journey to his new order, the friar accompanied a group of veteran knights. To make amends for his past, the disgraced nobleman became a Dominican friar.
To make as many supplies as possible available to the military.
Not until the veteran dies. The pension is the property of the veteran, NOT their spouse. While the veteran is alive, the spouse would not have any monetary claim on the veterans pension unless they divorced. Only then would she be able to make a claim on a percentage of his pension payment.
Unless you are already in the armed forces, you will not be able to. There are maximum ages for enlistment. An Act of Congress can make exceptions, but they do not occur often, Admiral Rickover and Admiral Hooper are two that I am aware of.
