As a disabled veteran (heart disease & related) I know that. I was using examples for those who don’t know what I mean. Please tell me you’re not like some of my East Coast relatives who believe that veterans and retirees are grifters and scum. Yes, I’m serious.
Well, my dad was a partly disabled vet, I was permanently disabled in a bad parachute jump, but I hid my disability until I left a year later, because the injury was causing a physical deterioration.
I have a friend with my same injury, that collects a princely sum.
Many of my vet friends collect various disability checks.
You don’t always have to be so sensitive about being a vet, lots of us are.
