I'm not sure what you're trying to find out. I will tell you this, I earned everything I get. Twenty years in that environment is a long, long time.

I am a retiree and I have no idea of what you are asking. I spent 32 years in the Military, have retired some years ago and draw a life time pension, medical, dental, and commissary privileges to name a few. These benefits can be earned in as short as 19 years and six months.

the fast answer is IT relies upon upon the area that the retiree is in. First, the VA will can charge for an place of work bypass to or distinctiveness bypass to in the experience that your disability score is under 30%. in case you're 30% or over, there is no can charge. That share additionally relies upon upon each VA area; some enforce and a few do no longer. The VA would not "motivate retirees to apply Tricare" one way or the different. If the vet shows up, they get therapy in accordance to their popular precedence. i exploit the two the VA and Tricare as a militia retiree; I even have stumbled on the civilian docs greater useful than VA docs and greater responsive. on the different hand, i can get blood draw "loose" in my specific case and that i gets a commission mileage while i bypass to the VA-with Tricare i do no longer yet however my Tricare healthcare expert is 4 miles away. there is no one length that suits all. The retiree could be 4 miles from a VA midsection yet lots extra from a civilian Tricare healthcare expert. i understand this complicates the respond yet no longer all mil retirees are "veterans" considering some reservists in no way bypass on energetic accountability after their inititial training. no longer lots yet they do exist wish this enables.

Yes benefits are not bad but one has to recall what $$ we made,
I recall getting $72 a month when I joined, minus some savings bond that was $18.75 and that left me a virtual fortune.
I earned my benefits, we all did, as well as the spouses.

There are actually many benefits for the military retired. It also depends where you retire to. If you retire in California your children can go to college free tuition. However, California taxes your retirement pay. If you retire in Kentucky you are tax free, but will have to pay for children to go to college.
