[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 10301, member: 1697"] My nephew is not Nam era, he is only 22 right now. Most of the people in my detachment of Marine Corps League are also current duty.....and quite a few of the people at the VA where we go are also currently serving active duty. My husband benefits just now got on track- we just in the last 2 years FINALLY got what he has had due him for ? decades. Yes, my nephew did great......tons of promotions etc and he liked it OK enough..just he got better pay going civilian.....BUT then, too-----altho my nephew was active combat- he and his unit had no injuries etc. Going to the VA so often I see the ones who have been injured and wounded and being MCL yes, I do attend the wakes and funerals of those who were not all so lucky or fortunate. ANd I also see and talk to many many who are still serving beside those guys. (we do honor guard at the wakes and funerals of KIA) I also do a lot of my shopping, grocery etc on the Navy base here. SO I am always with those living on the navy base. (yes we have commissary priveleges and such- we can eat in the galley if we want...go to the movies on base or use the gym etc......or the beach etc- becuz of the 100% combat related permanant and total disability) [/QUOTE]
